There's always room for another truck in the Ford vehicle lineup. 😃 Trucks are Ford's biggest strength.
However, while adding another ICE truck is fine and dandy, Ford's focus (haha) should be on getting its CE1 electric truck to market on time, in high volume, with high quality. And bringing F-150 Lightning back to life.
Tesla currently has this offer for customers trading in a gasoline powered vehicle on a new Tesla vehicle.
Frequent use of DC fast charging is still the exception and not the rule for Tesla owners (and EV owners overall), whether or not they qualify for "free" Supercharging.
I don’t follow mustang, but I’m curious as to what the Mustang crowd’s thoughts are on the Dark Horse? Do fans hold it in the same regards as Cobras, Boss, Bullitt, Mach 1, etc? I wonder why they chose to name this dark horse too? With the bumper now painted in the newest pictures, it doesn’t bear much resemblance to the Dark Horse at all. I think using one of the other available mustang names would have been better instead of now having two dark horses.
That's what I would buy. The only type of 2 door truck that makes sense imo is a sporty ute that looks like a mustang with a bed. Cab pass thrus have made long bed 2 door trucks irrelevant for people who just wanna haul stuff imo.
I actually wouldn't mind if this front end was the inspiration for the s650 facelift, or s750 redesign. It really conveys that clean, but sharp look that fits the mustang so well. I believe Akirby said he would like the next mustang to be inspired by the '69-70 bodystyle which I can get behind. I could see a similar front end to this working well with that sort of design.
While it’s not a kei car, I think something like the Toyota hilux champ could do well. I think they start around 10-13k. The one in the picture below probably costs way more than that though.
A single cab sport truck named Ranchero. It would not overlap existing truck models like a Bronco truck would. Built off of the Maverick platform with a 6’ bed, hybrid options and Pro Power Onboard. This would be consistent with Farley’s “a different kind of truck “ comment.
It could be very affordable and appeal to the younger buyers.
