💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY: Three years ago, I reported that automakers were working on augmented reality windshields, which project directions onto the glass, overlaid on the road up ahead, and provide other vehicle information.

⌚ WHAT TO WATCH FOR: Tonight, Ford officially unveils its long-awaited electric F-150 pickup truck. (In our most recent newsletter, I mistakenly said the reveal was yesterday. My bad! It's tonight, though President Joe Biden was allowed to drive one around yesterday in a visit to a Ford plant in Michigan.) We'll have coverage, so check back in at USATODAY.com/Money.
