Well...since I didn't piss off anyone enough to derail this threAd with my post that dissed Mustangs...

I may as well go again and say that one of the things I will enjoy most about the demise of fossil-fueled vehicles is the demise of loud exhaust noise...

Jeezis fucking christ. Enough already. No one wants to blow you just because your car/truck/motorcycle can be heard a mile away. Mutherfukk. I have never understood this. It ain't just because I'm old....

(sadly, this will take a long enough time as to not be realistic. There will still be lots of "classic" cars and bikes out there that are allowed to disturb and annoy everyone on a continual basis)

6.) Fox Body Ford Mustang

Why It's White Trash: Imagine yourself in the driver's seat of a Fox Body Mustang convertible. You're cruising at a steady 65. Place your hand on the back of your head. There's a 95% percent chance you're fingers are running through a luxurious mullet. Now, the rest of you Fox Body aficionados need to calm down, if you don't have a mullet you're in the other 5%. The convertible Mustang's big engine and hoontastic capabilities are lustworthy characteristics for when you want to impress Brandine and sitting at the Sonic is done best with the top down.

Not surprised Ford is finally bringing back the T-Bird.

Just disappointing, thought it would be a Thunderbird-EV reincarnation.

see how well the Mach-E sells first. Not everyone's on board with EV's yet. It looks pretty sleek.

Again with rapid advances being made with batteries, get a new EV this or next year, there's a good chance your next EV will have a totally new type battery.

Volkswagen Lays Out Ambitious EV Battery Plans After Partner's Big Breakthrough

The prismatic unified cell will launch in 2023 and could slash battery costs in half, Volkswagen said.

Solid-state batteries could transform electric cars with fast recharging times, lower costs and increased battery life, thereby removing obstacles that have held back the mass adoption of electric vehicles.

but we're not there yet.

Hey Z,
I finally bit the bullet and ordered the Mach-E Premium AWD with extended battery. 8-12 week estimate for build and delivery. It took me awhile to choose which color and interior to get. Not being able to see them all in person made it difficult to decide.

Nice.
Read it's always better to order the best battery available given our cold winter climes.

Did you hear about the Tesla 2 coming out? Tesla 2 price is set at < $20,000!

EV prices set to drop next year.
EV sales are expected to take off.

Right now in China the top HOTTEST selling EV goes for < $5000, is a joint venture EV made by GM and a Hong Kong company!

I did hear about the Tesla 2. There were a few leaked photps. of the prototype. It. looked more stylish than the existing models. Elon hired a designer that used to work for Lotus. I had hunch that the CyberTruck was. inspired by the. Esprit expaHe's working on the CyberTruck and. the Model-2

An EV for $5000? Imagine if it qualified for the tax credit, it would be free. I hope it doesn't sacrifice safety for affordability. I remember the Yugo.
