    They also sold 884k full size trucks. How does the CEO being a woman change that the vast majority of these purchases are men?

            No, I’m not entertaining this anymore - it is overwhelmingly men at the core of the truck problem in the U.S.

                You have seen how incompetent Elon Musk is and you’re still behaving like CEOs actually matter. Beyond the ability to tank his brand, of course.

                I don’t have anything else to say.

                    Yes, do you know what makes them relevant in their industry? Recognizing they aren’t a monolith and making decisions based off of data that their employees process.
