I'm assuming that possible EV sedan might be on the smaller side then the Mustang   A 4 door Mustang would be about 200-205 inches long and EV sedan would be like 190 or so-think Tarsus vs Fusion

I agree they do too much launch and abandon but the reason for that is their recent small and midsized platforms are not cost effective so margins are low.  Improvements would help sales but nobody is paying a premium for better vehicles like those so it won't move the needle on margins.  C2 is the first step in the right direction but it needs another generation of cost reduction which I think ce1 will provide especially the electrical.  Not moving Edge and Nautilus to C2 with hybrids a decade ago was a big mistake.   So when Ford abandons a vehicle it's usually because margins are low or negative and no prospect to improve that short of a whole new platform.  So they've already decided the juice isn't worth the squeeze before they abandon it.  Why throw good money after bad IF you have better options like Maverick and Bronco Sport that can be sold at higher margins on the existing platform?   And you're right at some point you run out of those options which is why they're going back to affordable vehicles on new platforms.  We'll see if they're able to achieve the expected cost savings and if they'll stick with affordable vehicles but that doesn't mean those vehicles need to be cars.

Makes me wonder how many buyers regret their purchase. my wife gives me grief about all the fingerprints on our SS refrigerator so I can imagine the upkeep with polishing cleaning on cybertruck  is pretty horrendous. No wonder people wrap the thing…

Oh wait I found a spy photo......                          

I still believe doing like a cool sport ute with a ton of accessories to boost appeal and profits, kinda like a slate mixed with a ranchero, could be a captivating idea. With a lower price point, I could see such a truck appealing to younger enthusiasts quite a bit. 

Maybe he just means some type of 4 door midgate design.  Hard to come up with anything else.

Falcon would be a solid choice, I think Galaxie is a really cool name that would suit an exciting performance product incredibly well also. 

As in there are two sedans if what we're hearing is right. There's the mustang sedan, which insiders have claimed is s650 based, and then there's this affordable RWD EV performance sedan. It's possible both are mustang sedans, and Ford is essentially letting different development teams compete to see which one is the better all around product before deciding which one to put into production. 

Edited to clarify my point of view as this is not intended as a attacking your post..   Pinto legal action was the showcase to change the way automakers calculated financial risk… Yes and no, it was a great opportunity for law firms going up against “big bad Ford” but when anytime someone tried to defend/mitigate Ford’s actuary decisions it was “You’re trying to defend the indefensible”. Pinto was an accident going somewhere to happen and the fact that many other vehicles didn’t erupt in flame  from a rear end hit is testament to an exceptionally bad design but let me explain that a bit…..   The triple whammy was 1. drop in gas tank design - shared with other models was prone to rupture in a rear end crash   2. rear light design - hit at the right angle would create a spark, igniting the gasoline fumes     3. weak body shell - a strong rear hit could deflect the B Pillar enough to jam the doors and stop occupants leaving the vehicle before engulfed in flames…   …… also, the rear floorpan section was prone to spliting in a crash allowing a subsequent fire to enter the cabin      Ford estimated that 180 fatalities and 180 non-fatal injuries ($49.5 million) would be cheaper to deal with than recall vehicles and install $11 liner and longer gas tank nozzle ($137 million   Up to 1977, there were actually 27 fatalities and 24 non-fatal injuries, so Ford was pessimistic by a factor of six times. Because of the outcry, they ended up doing a recall on 1.5 million vehicles…  

How many other vehicles of the era have the same thing? If anything this is just hatchet job by lawyers to put additional stresses in their case.
