TTAC "Blacklisted" By Ford Of Canada Due To Excessively Truthful MKZ Review

We’ll make this short and simple. Derek Kreindler’s forthright review of the new Lincoln MKZ was posted a month and three days ago. Immediately after the review went live, Derek’s next press loaner from Ford was canceled with no reason given. All further requests for Ford press loaners in Canada have been denied. On August 6th, I sent an email to Ford’s head of PR in Canada.

Jonathan It's sad to see all these automakers trying to make an unnecessary rush to go all out electric. EVs should be a niche vehicle. Each automaker can make one or two in limited numbers but that should be it. The technology and infrastructure simply aren't there yet, nor is the demand. I think many of the countries (including the U.S.) that are currently on the electric band wagon will eventually see the light and quietly drop their goal of making everyone go all electric. It's simply not necessary or feasible.
TCowner No - won't change my opinion or purchase plans whatsoever. A Hybrid, yes, an EV, No. And for those saying sure as a 2nd car, what if your needs change and you need to use it for long distance (i.e. hand down to a kid as a car for college - where you definitely won't be able to charge it easily)?
Ravenuer I see lots of Nissans where I live, Long Island, NY. Mostly suvs.
