    Whatever this forum told me to do
    no, I have not.
    really, really - I like the looks of the Ford lightning. but it shat the bed on sales.


    on a similar note - as I ponder the big 3 EV's....

    I'm not sure I would ever consider a Big 3 EV.
    See, the big 3 don't want to make them.
    free market consumers don't want to buy them.

    apparently Tesla, who's sole focus is on making a decent EV product, is the only EV to:
    achieve successful sales volumes
    make a reliable product
    dominate performance
    dominate innovation

    all the other EV's are here because of Gov mandates. and it shows in the product execution.

    I do FULLY support ICE vehicles and the free market choice to have one. (I want a v8-10speed Tundra!)

    I can see EV's remaining as a CHOICE.



    there will be absolute mayhem if EV's are forced upon us.

    imagine having to consider a free democratic Gov forcing it's population into a certain market. imagine that Gov being ours.

    ponderous.

    That's precisely what a "free democratic gov" will do, because democracies are shit. That's why the USA is not a democracy.

    Out before politics ban. :wave:

    I got to drive to the lake

    an awesome thing….it gets into the fast lane to pass. Stays there. Until a car approaches from the rear. Then it moves over!

    Honestly, with the low price they already have them down to, the $10K off would make it a fine around town grocery getter. As long as it doesn't have any know problems. I don't actually know anything about it other than it being an abuse of a muscle care name in hopes of driving sales.

    Yep, long term longevity is unknown along with resale value compared to the competition.

    And yeah, the Mustang badge should only ever come on an ICE car :facepalm:
