Not gonna lie, this last weekend I met a girl from my home town that I apparently went to school with. And somehow we got onto the subject of dating and was upset that I didn't have a girlfriend. She asked what my type was and I described it. She thought I was being picky but I kinda left it open ended and said look, I'm not looking for a damn Instamodel but a decent looking girl who's going some working matter in between her ears. Here's the thing about 10's. If you wanna buy a Ferrari, you're going to have to maintain a Ferrari. She didn't get it. She was kinda closer to a V6 Camaro anyway. She's okay but just...whatever.

I certainly do not disagree with you although I really do like my LCD dashboard. That said it’s a moot point. We all know the direction automotive electronics are going and it’s going to be more, not less.
Well designed electronic displays are great. It's controls on a touch screen that suck.

Suggestion: don't invest in Beyond Meat's stock right now. I kinda got the shit end of that stick. Ah well, onward and upward to a different investment.

Kinda proud of myself, yesterday I learned how to program Twitter Bots using Python 3.7. Kinda interesting. But not worth my time. I don't like politics anyway so no need. M6G on the other hand.......

I understand your points. The only reason we are even discussing this vehicle is because they named it after beloved Mustang.
That, and also the way that we got to this point.

It would not surprise me at this point to find out that 'Mustang Mach E' was the intended name all along, with 'Mach 1' and 'Mach E' without the 'Mustang' part being tossed out first to condition public opinion . . . just nudge it a little. And to 'game' the buying public into believing that no naming had been finalized.

They already knew that whatever behind-the-scenes approach they took for the FWD Mustang that was eventually named 'Probe' didn't work then, and would have been even less likely to work now.

RT is literally a Russian propaganda machine. You should not get any "news" from a state owned news network, it is all made up to promote a narrative. In this case that narrative is that America is failing and Russia is strong.

100% agreed. I'd rather they improve the voice command interface to where we do not need these monstrosities stuck to our dashboards.

The Mustang branding gives me a bellyache, no question about that. But from what I see over the last few days of the product itself and the corporate reasoning here, I'm not inclined to go Chicken Little where Ford is concerned. The future is unknowable by its nature, so we'll just have to wait and see how this plays out.
