They mostly do this to pull up a bunch of capex depreciation and R&D expense to offset profits from other business units so they don't have to pay taxes.

No. Other cars got expensive before they were forced to build EVs. Their cost rate is dictated by greedy dealerships adding 10K onto their vehicles for a dealer fee along with stupid people who don't understand debt to income ratio and can't go without buying the next newest biggest thing

Ford is absolutely trying to make it up on parts. Prices of $1,500 or more for a bare taillight assembly are common on their premium trim trucks.
