Yes, “A mustang is a free-roaming horse of the Western United States, descended from horses brought to the Americas by the Spanish”. If you want to be peculiar about meaning of words.

Why would you waste a brand name? If it is there, use it.

I know what a muscle car is, and the definition has been changing as we go. At first muscle car was an american drag car with a V8. Now they come with V6 and are still muscle cars.

The sales went down even when the market was up, so that isn’t an excuse.

It’s not about it being hard or not. Again, I repeat, there is a big difference between CAN and WILL.

It is, look at the sale numbers, they speak for themselves.

What international sales? I say this because US mustang sales were about 76k, and global sales(including US) was what 113k? Effectively, almost 3/4th of the sales are US with minor international presence.

There are a bunch of Model X’s on the road, but it does look similar to the Model S so you might not realize it unless you look carefully.

Does Ford have a choice? Mustang sales are declining rapidly. It’s either this, or no more Mustang. So why not use what you have?

You can use the wipers through the stalk on a Model 3 just an fyi.

Fords logic is pretty simple.

Hate- HATE- the huge center touchscreen. In cars you need controls that stay in one place and provide tactile feedback to the driver- I can operate every button and switch in my POS Elantra without taking my eyes off the road.

End of the day, Ford has no choice, GT or not, Mustang sales are slipping rapidly. So it is either embrace the future, or kill off the Mustang altogether.

Are they? You can get both the SR+ and LR for under 50k. Only the performance model is 50k. Well there are options that will bring the price up, but I don’t know about most being over 50k

I know I’m gonna regret asking cause the response is going to be stupid, but I’ll ask anyway, what is this “look like a proper car” and “not look like a proper car”. Do explain what part of a Tesla does not look like a “proper car” and what this has that makes it look like a “proper car”

Tesla Model S looks a ton better than that.

They want to capitalize on their Mustang brand which has seen pretty much 2X drop in sales since 2015. So its either calling it Mustang, or discontinue the Mustang brand.

I am right on every single count. If you look at the studies that look at cold weather in detail, without heater, the loss in range is virtually the same as ICE cars in winter, in some sense even less. The reason why they seem to use up more is because the tests do short 10 mile trips and spend energy heating up the…

What 3rd world countries? US? South Korea? Japan? Germany?

You describe a small portion of people though. And even for those, PHEV is an option.
