TI is building two more plants here in North Texas (maybe two more in addition to those) to build chips that go into cars and other products, but the first one will not be up and running until 2025. However, it is good that they are ramping up here in the USA.

Re: “So the question still begs as to exactly why the west coast ports have this much backlog and then also, why don't these freighters just bypass them and go to Texas Ports and Florida ports and be offloaded immediately?”
A fine, C-O-L-D morning to you too, sir. (Wind chill here was -29° at 8 AM).

I agree with your assessment. But in addition to the problems in California, I'm wondering what the HELL is delaying cars built in the United States. There's no way we should be going on 8 months without car availability because of some stupid computer chips. Replacement chips and software should have been available by now.

Somebody set us up. Somebody who doesn't want us buying cars or who just wants to see the whole country in collapse.
