Yeah, the Japanese domination is probably another reason Ford left the market. They can't compete. And why would they if the Sedan is heading towards an inevitable irrelevance?
I mean it's still a big market, but all signs show it in a sharp decline.
The MPG difference is as drastic as it was when gas was $4 a gallon. I'm sure Ford will cut it close enough that people will still choose SUV over sedan.
It's profitable, but obviously they're betting they'll be more profitable without sedans.
Ballsy. I think Ford is making the right move. It's hard to see sedans making a comeback. If Ford can position itself as the top trucks and SUVs brand then they will be doing very well for the foreseeable future.
edit: Lot of mention of gas prices. Ford wouldn't be doing this move if they...
My family owned a BMW and they switched to Lexus because of the maintenance. As soon as the car hit 50k miles it was nonstop problems and cost. Seeing that helped me make the decision for V6 mustang since it's reliable and has cheap parts.
Got any pics? Had to skim like 90% of your video to find the car. Annoying.
Anyway, I like it. It seems safe to me. The color scheme isn't far off from stock paint options, but it's not metallic. Just enough to be different.
It's annoying for people who can use their because a lot of the time dealers will just hold out and try to sell to some ding dong who goes purely off of monthly payments.
No offense to OP and congratulations, but yeah this seems to be very common and I don't get it. Very expensive, but if you're in a situation where you can afford it comfortably more power to you.
Red has become very popular.
But does it cost more as an option? If yes, that's the main reason dealers would order it. They usually option the hell out of new cars.
Isn't it the other way around? Both cars will get 30+ mpg on the highway. Eco will have a higher city mpg if you drive nicely.
I'm late to the thread but just gonna reiterate the main points for V6 (yeah I have one so i'm biased). Cheaper buy and maintenance and its bulletproof. Those were...
Would that be a new lease?
I see a lot of people contemplating trading up and I'm just thinking to myself how expensive that is for a car of only 3 years.
