Already mentioned getting an aluminum trailer. Car itself weighs just under 3800 wet, and a 18' aluminum trailer shouldn't weigh much more than 1600lbs or so. But even guessing on the high side, that's 5800lbs at most. Like I said, if Ford can beat the 4 runner (which I'm confident in, given the...
Just like we're PRETTY SURE on quite a few things about the Bronco... "jeep competitor", manual trans, 33" tires, removable/stowable doors, and so on. But a lot of people condemning the "secrecy" that Ford has with the Bronco will say that those were never confirmed by Ford and can't be taken as...
I still don't understand this sentiment
We didn't even know that the Mach E was going to be called "Mustang Mach E" until the day prior to its release. We had almost NO concrete information on it prior to its release. Meanwhile, we already know what platform the Bronco is on, at least 1 engine...
Keep in mind, Ford never said they're directly gunning for the Wrangler (as many here like to point out). If Ford is looking to steal some of Jeep's fire, towing capacity is one place they can gain some customers over it. I know I'd personally NEVER consider a wrangler solely for the reason that...
I voted "experience features", but REALLY it comes down to towing capacity for me
Lately, I've been looking into some big ol diesel trucks simply because I decided to keep a car that I was initially planning to flip (which puts me at 5 total), but I'm also planning on moving halfway across the...
If this is REALLY the stance you want to take...
I'd guarantee that the same Camry could take on MOAB with ease with about the same amount of modification
Nah, it was Hackett... Just like pretty much every other decision that has been awful for the enthusiasts and great for the bean counters (because we all know how well that worked in the 70s-90s)
"Before the decision to make it a Mustang, Ford was benchmarking the vehicle as a "compliance" EV...
I’d have to see the charts you’re referring to, but what I’m seeing from Ford alone is that there was a sharp increase on Monday solely from the weekend stock purchases over the release, then a sharp drop afterward at an even faster rate than prior to the Mach E’s release
But as a smart...
Also, taking a look at where's Ford's stock has gone since I sold mine out Sunday morning shows that it spiked up over the weekend from the release, then has SHARPLY taken a nose dive since, even harder than before the Mach E was released... logic would tell you investors are seeing what a...
Okay, fine, whatever. I'm sure you wouldn't consider a Datsun 1500 a sports car either, would you?
85hp, 0-60mph 15.5s, 1/4 mile 20.2s at 66mph
point is, a "sports car" isn't determined by straight line speed. It's about the physical layout of the car, and in 1974, the Mustang was considered...
From what you and many others have told me, pretty much everyone who is going to buy it would’ve bought it anyways if it wasn’t called “Mustang” and didn’t have the badge... so why piss off your faithful customers for absolutely no gain whatsoever?
I’ve yet to see a brand new R go for anywhere...
Well you’re simply wrong here. A Miata has about the same power and an even slower 1/4 mile, yet is the epitome of a sporty roadster
Sure, on only the limited production top spec trims that’ll run you $100k at a minimum because of markups
What I got from that is “Ford did it as a publicity stunt, so you should like it because SICC TROLL BRUH”
nah, that still doesn’t fly. It’s not a Mustang
This very thread is evidence to the contrary... Mach E was spotted for the first time in production flesh less than 3 months ago. We still have AT LEAST 4 months until Bronco, and we’ve already gotten to see the R, which at least gives us a hint at some design elements
Be patient, our time will...
It doesn’t matter whether it’s good or bad, it’s about whether it’s true to the spirit of the Mustang. Good or bad alone doesn’t determine a Mustang, it’s what the car IS that determines it, and the Mach E ISN’T a Mustang
my wife made an excellent dinner tonight. I think I’m gonna start calling...
No negativity, just being real. I don’t even see where where I was “bashing” nick
The problem with the idea of “wait and see” is that by the time it DOES happen, it’ll be too late. We have to have some foresight here
Wow, there’s a whole STORM of bullshit to sift through here...
Wait wait wait, so let me get this straight... the ST line is allowed to be exclusive to one specific kind of vehicle, but at the same time we’re supposed to accept it when Ford calls a completely different kind of vehicle the same...
