GET ME REWRITE!! The slow drip of bad news out of Lordstown becomes a gusher

Lordstown also said that it produced 56 Endurance vehicles so far and only delivered 18 electric vehicles to customers. In the fourth-quarter, Lordstown sold just three pick-up trucks for less than $200 thousand in revenues, so the ramp here is very disappointing. The slow ramp in production coincides with growing liquidity problems which could put Lordstown out of business… if the EV start-up does not manage to save the financing deal with Foxconn or find a new source of investment capital to finance the ramp of its first-ever production car. With the Foxconn/Lordstown investment deal hanging by a thread, I believe odds of a potential bankruptcy have risen sharply in May.  [emphasis added]
