Do you go to many parties where people tell stories of their amazing slot car racing track?

Neat.

G8 has huge back seat and lots of leg room in rear and front vs Wrangler. It was way easier to buckle them into 5 point harness in G8 to me. Doing it at shoulder level with less space was worse.

Maybe it’s my dream of having a modern RWD hot hatch (a new Foxbody), that’s affecting my view of what Ford should do.

I drive an xB so car seats are easier in my car than your truck. The roof line is high enough others see me, and I can fit just about anything in it or on the roof rack. 16 grand new. I zip thru traffic and can park anywhere. minivans will do just about anything my car can’t do.

Lifting kids up to their seat is way worse.

No offense to you human trees out there. But being tall is overrated.

About once a week you would see him pushing his car up a hill so he could bump start it since the battery had drained down over night due to a short.. This was a very reliable car for the era.

How the hell is this still a thing?

That’s exactly my point. All of these revered names were aimed at the younger crowd, but the trend is that the younger crowd isn’t doing what they did in previous generations.

Neither will change how good the current Mustang is.

and the 2+2 isn’t even that much of a sacrifice

As someone who has the option to go between an SUV and a sedan, the SUV is leaps and bounds a better experience because you can adequately assess traffic.

Yup. I’d even make a new Fusion sedan when they get there off of the Mustang chassis. I’d keep the Focus 5-door and I’d bring over only the 3-door Fiesta and the Fiesta ST and that way it doesn’t overlap the ecoboost Mustang like the upper end performance Focus does.

I’m waiting until my receding hairline meets in the middle before shaving my hair off... that feels more inevitable every year. At least I already have the beard.

Joe Consumer doesn’t think anything less of a Mustang because of this, and no one is going to mistake the two.

We know EVs can be quick. A limited production $100k AWD Mach-e with 1/4 mile time in the 10s will sell a lot of $40k 2WD smaller battery models. Ford would be silly not to do that.

My choice of undercover vehicle appears to be highly effective....

“Take a look at the person behind the wheel of any newer hot hatch, and it’ll likely be a guy with graying hair.”

Mustangand Cobra survived being a Pinto with a bad body kit, it should be able to survive being an EV SUV.
