Think less truck, more like later Aussie Falcon pickup. They were pretty cool, coming with DOHC 4.0 I-6, Turbo I-6 or DOHC 5.4 or Miami (S/C Coyote)    

IDK man, we've discussed how Ford needs to be careful with expanding the mustang brand and not having too many models with mustang branding. I feel like a mustang truck would really bury the mustang brand for a lot of people, and would be a bit too far.    That being said, I like the way you think. With Ford leaning so heavily into all these trucks models, and pretty much all of them looking like conventional trucks, it would be neat if the CE1 truck or some other future truck models looked nothing like traditional trucks, and had bolder, more expressive designs to differentiate them from the rest of Ford's lineup. 

Anything can be made political these days.  Doesn’t mean it originated that way.

Not sure

Ford China introduced 3rd gen Yuhu pickup at a press event this week.    The new Yuhu ditched the streamline look of the previous gen (introduced in 2017) and adopted a more rugged look that first appeared on the T6 JMC Dadao.    https://www.autohome.com.cn/news/202505/1306244.html   Yuhu slots in between Baodian and Dadao in the JMC line up.     

It is my understanding that the speed limit recognition system utilizes the connected navigation but it also has camera recognition of the physical speed limit signs. Does the camera recognition of speed limit signs also end after three years?

Also, a Mustang pickup/Ranchero version would help.   Let me add, Ive not seen any indication that this is happening  but could be built down FRAP line with small changes.

But, it is being made political

Yes it’s part of the maps data which you get with connected navigation.  Just had to renew ours on our 22 Nautilus.  Also includes live traffic info.
