Mustangs have never been Granada-based. Mustangs have always predated the Granada using either the Falcon-derivative Maverick platform or the later generation Fox platform.

Ford didn’t use the Ford script or Blue Oval logo as an exterior badge for many decades. It was primarily FORD in block letters or in conjuction with a red, white and blue sheild. It was not until 1982, Ford returned the classic Blue Oval with Ford script to the exterior of American cars. Ford of Europe and Australia…
They could put a Buick grille on a Chevy they build here instead and no one would notice...
Granted the Mustang did get too big thanks to Bunkie Knudsen the ex-head of Pontiac. The original plan for the 1974 Mustang was for it to go slightly smaller to Maverick size. There was even a point Ford gave consideration for the Maverick to replace the Mustang when the Maverick debuted. Anyway, it was decided to…
Not a tool. An appliance like a fridge, stove, washer and dryer. Like the good vibrator she needs because her little penis husband is too busy rollin coal from his F-350 Super Duty quad cab bro dozer.
It was because of this woman in the picture that we ended up with the Mustang II. She complained the Mustang had gotten too big and Iacocca listened to her and we ended up with a dinky underpowered, underperforming pony with awkward styling. Ford even went to the trouble to create the Ghia version with a padded…
In reality I see plenty of women driving with their male companion in the passenger seat because he is lazy, unemployed, a DUI offender. He is not likely to get out of the car to help her load groceries, secure the children into car seats or help her check the oil when the oil light comes on and the engine is running…
I learned to drive a stickshift in the late 1970s in my aunt’s 1976 Mercury Bobcat which she had since brand new and still had it the day she passed away two years ago. Many years before that my mom would let me shift the gears in her 1971 Vega.
I think the word you're looking for is license.
Vegas, Monzas and all other GM H-body derivatives used a lift-up lockout for reverse on the manual transmission cars.
For 1971, GM made a lot of customers unhappy with their flow-thru ventilation system. The blower fan was always on pulling cold air into the cabin and exiting the air through perforated louvered vents on the trunklid or tailgate. This made customers unhappy in the winter time when it was cold until the heater warmed…
The Ranchero and El Camino never sold that well anyway. There was no plan to replace the Ranchero anyway since the Ranger was well under development.
For my current Matrix, a back-up camera has been the most significant mod for me.
They might need to send an undercover Probe to get to the bottom of this...
This reminds me of the morons that leave the yellow protective strips on RainX wiper blades...
My grandparents used to take my brother and I on trips during the summer in their 1973 Cadillac Sedan de Ville. We used to play with the arm rest mounted flip-open ashtrays with the electric cigarette lighters and burn toy soldiers and the heads of various action figures.
Mergio's time is up!😂😂😂
Yes for the same reason people bought the Chevy Celebrity Eurosport in the 1980s with it’s red pinstripes and blacked out chrome. It made Chevy millions of dollars with very little investment.
