Stellantis does make affordable vehicles though… in Europe…
They own Peugeot, Citroën, Fiat, Opel, etc and they have been making great affordable EVs for a few years now.
Stellantis in the US and Stellantis in Europe seem like two entirely different entities that don’t talk to one another.
That must have changed recently then, because last I checked they only really had the Mustang left over.
Ever since they discontinued the Ford Focus and Ford Fiesta
Edit: Looks like they introduced the Ford Puma since then, and a handfull of SUVs
Doesn’t Ford mostly focuss on the American market these days? They don’t make reasonably sized or affordable cars anymore, only oversized pickups and SUVs, which don’t sell well outside of North America.
Meanwhile BYD has the Chinese market already, and is expanding globally, selling relatively affordable EVs.
I’m not exactly surprised that they are outselling Ford
Is the way the people of Greenland are responding to America threatening to invade their country really news? Think that one over in your head for a minute.
I made a joke with my friends in 2024, back when Harris was announced to be the presidential candidate for the Democratic party
Facism or woman, which way Western man?
Turns out America chose fascism
Those who didn’t vote in the 2024 election are equally culpable to the Trumpoids in my eyes. It was very clear what Trump stood for, yet they didn’t bother to go out and vote against fascism.
“surprised”
I’m still using a DDR3 system for my home server, so I wouldn’t call it exactly useless.
It runs on my old computer hardware, with an Intel i5-4670k and 16 GB of RAM.
For anything that doesn’t need to be the most performant, it could be a decent way to save some money on the RAM at the moment.
Most people aren’t cheering that we are rearming, but they understand that it is a necessary evil.
Russia is right at our doorsteps and is increasingly aggressive. So we either rearm in the hope that that threat keeps Russia at bay, or we don’t and will hopelessly lose if Russia invades.
Personally I prefer the first option.
At this moment they are discussing doing that, but that does not mean it has already passed or is going to pass
I believe the point is not to replace the existing carreer soldiers, but to train up part of the population to increase the size of your reserve forces.
That way, if war were to break out, you have a pool of trained civilians to draw from until you finish training your new recruits.
Fire the trade bazooka!
Quality news headline right there
Expect more to follow. America is clearly showing that they cannot be trusted as an ally, so countries are going to make the calculation whether it might just be better to align with China instead
Haven’t we always been at war with Eurasia?
Okay, but then don’t come crying that your “allies” aren’t helping you the next time y’all decide to invade the Middle East
I would still recommend tweaking the provided text a little to be more personal to you, but it’s a really good baseline to work from.
Once again I will post the following link:

I will keep posting this link whenever Chat Control shows its ugly head again.
It’s a BBC article, so it stands to reason that this is about the UK government.
From the coverage that I read in my national newspaper (which admittedly isn’t Slovakian) the speed limit applies to everyone on the sidewalk. Not just to e-bikes and e-scooters, but also to pedestrians.
The speed limit is set to 6 km/h. Joggers and people making a sprint to catch a bus, would easily be breaking that speed limit.
The Ford Explorer is not even close to being a mid-size car
Here is it compared to a Peugeot 2008, which is a “mid-sized” car by European standards

The Ford Explorer is an absolute tank compared to the Peugeot
