This past Saturday morning (November 29, 2025), I paid $3.429/gallon at a RaceTrac store here in Melbourne, Florida where we live. The zip code here is 32940.
My total monetary expenditure for this was $63.00, which bought me 18.373 gallons of 91 octane Mid-Grade gasoline. Our vehicle is a 2014 Cadillac SRX.
Thanks!
The SN95 and new Edge Mustangs were very similar to the Fox body 1979 Mustang and lasted till 2005. The S550 had a significant improvement with IRS being added to it.
Given that the Fox lasted from 1979 to 2004, there is no reason the S197/S550/S650 can't last till 2030.
Getting back to the Mustang sedan EV-I can see the CE1 birthing a Mach E replacement, not so sure about pure Mustang Replacement.
The bigger issue is what is Ford going to do post 2030 with the Mustang coupe-do they invest money into the current S650 platform by adding a sedan and improving the coupe so it can last till end of the 2030s?
Not making major changes to the Mustang platform is the reason why it stays in production-tooling/etc costs are amortized already. Not to mention a fairly modified S650 can handle being a SuperCar in the form of the Mustang GT3 too...
Looks like Ford still hasn't put up the build and price tool on its website for 2026 F-150 Lightning, STX or otherwise. Early 2026 is comin' very soon! 😔
My way of thinking is we got the s650 in 2023 as a 2024 model. So by the time 2029 rolls around, it will have been around for about 6 years, which sounds about right. The s550 had an abnormally long shelf live. The '05 and '10 cars were both 5 years apart between redesigns, and I want to say the mid 90s and new edge mustang were about the same.
I'm still skeptical a next gen coupe arrives in 2028, given the 2025 was a redesign. Though I guess it's possible, and could explain why they reused so much inside?
I feel like the Mustang sedan should have a liftback too to make it more practical (Mustang's trunk opening is small).
Then again, hear me out. I've often said having a smaller, more affordable type of mustang that returns to the mustang's roots would be interesting, but that having this vehicle also be some sort of more practical shape than the normal coupe to boost its appeal might also make sense. What if there's a mustang v8 sedan in the works, but whatever this thing is, it's another addition of like a fox body inspired looking sedan/hatchback thing?
I know that's a wild theory, but it's interesting to think about.
Very solid observation my friend. That being said, I believe some insiders have claimed the 4 door would be s650 based. It's all over the place. One minute the chassis can't accommodate a sedan, the next it can.
Considering we now know the sedan is due to arrive in 2028, around the same time as the next gen coupe, I personally believe there's a chance Ford's working on a new platform behind the scenes that's more modern and flexible that'll underpin both of these cars, as well as other stuff in the future. I thought the current platform dates back to 2014, apparently some of its components actually date back to the early 2000s, so yeah, it definitely needs a new platform, something to set the mustang up for success for the next 20-30 years.
Because the mustang sedan is probably gonna be based on the coupe, I believe this EV sedan is its own thing. I'd love for the Galaxie name to make a comeback, sounds like it would fit whatever this car is quite well.
