Where do I sign the petition?I just cant believe that Ford themselves would find it anything but pure sacrilege to call any vehicle a Mach other than a Mustang, let alone an electric SUV - you've got to be kidding?!? This decision is incredibly disheartening to us Mustang/Mach fans & owners alike. Being a loyal Ford buyer, I've never felt more betrayed by a company. PETITION SIGNED!
As long as there's a relatively affordable V8 option I don't care. The minute Ford tries to force me to buy a V6, I'm out!Hey I didn't say I wanted that! Its much preferable to a damn SUV though, isn't it? I was just saying if they're going to pull stupid crap with names like that, I'd be able to take that much better..
Sorry Ponyboy wasn't trying to target you just pissed at this whole fiasco is all.
I do think its very likely we will see an Ecoboost V6 Mustang by the early 2020s though..
I'll accept v6 ecoboost before I do a hybrid or electric.As long as there's a relatively affordable V8 option I don't care. The minute Ford tries to force me to buy a V6, I'm out!
Although it would be some bittersweet justice to see Ford ax a V8 in favor of a V6 after a tradition of V8 to V6 owner condescension and ostracization.As long as there's a relatively affordable V8 option I don't care. The minute Ford tries to force me to buy a V6, I'm out!
I've never been about that. I'm still rocking my 25 year old 93 Ranger with a 3.0L V-6 as my daily. For the uninformed, that's the torqueless wonder that always played second fiddle to it's big brother, the more powerful 4.0L V-6. To me it's never been about the exclusivity. It's about the deep ass idle and high rpm growl that you can't get from a V-6. Some of us are just more attached to sonic pleasure than others. I won't apologize for my tastes, because someone else doesn't get it.Although it would be some bittersweet justice to see Ford ax a V8 in favor of a V6 after a tradition of V8 to V6 owner condescension and ostracization.
I'd prefer it if Ford just made a 3.5L V-8 ecoboost and didn't force me to have to listen to the wet fart exhaust tone of the V-6.I'll accept v6 ecoboost before I do a hybrid or electric.
I would have a whole new love for ford if that were the case :ford::lol:Wouldn't it be great if Ford was just trolling the world? Seeing all the outrage and speculation, while they sit behind their desks and read all the statements, like an episode of "Mean Tweets" on Jimmy Kimmel?
They keep a tight lid on everything, ensure NOTHING leaks, then release some badass, AWD V8 Hybrid Mustang (possibly hatchback?) that not only tears up at the street and strip, but also has room for Junior and a weeks worth of groceries...
...but just like the previous posts, it's all speculation and hopeless wonder.
I've contact someone at Ford whom some of us know, and his response indicated that this is a pet project of the new Ford CEO, so it doesn't look good for the home team.
But of course it is.... Again, he can have is electric SUV. Just call it anything else but Mach 1. :frusty:To quote someone from the mach1 forums:
