Hey, man, climbing curbs to get at pedestrians isn’t for the faint of heart.

I blame Garrick, a prototypical 4th gen owner and former coworker of mine. Pimply, fat, nerdy, big ego and zero mojo, he didn’t tell me on a lunch run that his brake pads were ALL down to their liners. He tried to pace friends that we were following as they zipped through a yellow light a good hundred yards ahead of…

So many of the good examples are sold to E-2's and then wrecked in like 5 months.  Its and epidemic.

Yeah that’s pretty consistent with my observations. The V8 models are typically well-looked-after, while the V6 models are treated like beaters.

Lost?  You should see the other guy. And by guy I mean pedestrian. 

All of your examples are base V6 Mustangs. They were cheap and unloved new and now they are on their 20th owner and even cheaper and no longer even know what love is.

The page refresh is killing me. Multiple refreshes where you lose your place in the article. 

Where I live, funnily enough it’s the Mustangs that look nice and the Monte Carlos and F-body Camaros are the shitheaps. Even the soapbar SN-95s are well taken care of.

Also, I literally cannot use Jalopnik most of the time anymore. Images in articles aren’t loading, articles themselves are getting cut off, and getting…

Last of the "low rider" pickups, which is why I like it.

The automotive design language probably changed more between 1993 and 1997 than it did between 1977 and 1993 😂

Mach 3?

There’s precedent for that hyphen:

<whispers> They also already have a Mustang.

Yeah. You’re probably not getting out the door for $44K though. Like the model 3, most of which are > $50K. 

The timing of this is absolutely hilarious. Right now, all over the world, people are sitting in movie theaters experiencing the beauty and excitement of the Ford GT, one of the most provocative race cars ever built.

Meanwhile, Ford clears its throat while balancing 340 pounds over the toilet and yells from the…

Ford still gets the full EV credit, so that’ll help for a good long while. 

The nose on that thing is terrible. Since there’s no engine block for pedestrians to smash their heads on, I don’t see why the hood has to be so bulbous.

It’s... not great. It’s not bad, it’s worse though - it’s dull. All of which leads me to ask, why did it need to be a Mustang?

Oh look, a Subaru owner projecting his lost dreams onto others. This post says more about you than the owner of that Miata.

It’s interesting that they are bumping up against the ring and pinion for torque limit. I think back in the TJ era a Dana 44 was a helluva upgrade axle set, but given the weight and size gain of these things it sounds like they are just barely keeping pace. I think the Wrangler is getting the point where it can’t get…
