Not trying to be political, but I'd implore you to look deeper into this.

That's not really a fair comparison, and you know it - you listed sedan and crossover versions of B-, C-, D-segment vehicles from two different brands.
So let's pare that list down to sedan body styles (a more accurate comparison):
B - Fiesta
C - Focus
C/D - Fusion/Mondeo
D - Taurus
With the new trucks, we'll have
Compact - Maverick
Midsize - Ranger, CE1 Truck, Bronco Truck
Full Size - F-150
HD - Super Duty
Maverick, Ranger, CE1 Truck, and Bronco Truck will all overlap each other a lot, so they'll have 4 different truck offerings right in the same size range. Sure, Maverick and Ranger have different use cases, but you're still adding 2 more models into the segment you already have products in.
They may all do just fine, but at a certain point, it'd be nice to see them put effort other places.
I'm worried Ford will make this a van with a Maverick's nose.
I'd buy an IDbuzz, if it were cheaper, or had a bigger battery, or a PV5 if its ever sold here.
So it was perfectly fine to have Puma, Fiesta, Focus, c-Max, Fusion, Taurus and Continental but having 5 or 6 trucks is bad?
I think this new affordable ICE truck at TTP will end up being a cheaper to build and more versatile Maverick that might end up replacing Ranger as the midsized truck offering. I
I really didn't think anything of it, because it has heavy camo over the whole thing (there are other views of the front wheel area that also show heavy camo). I just figured they put something over it to make that shape.
It'd be nice to see one of those 3, but I think it'll just be the latter, which will still be cool, but not "exciting".
You're gonna get 17 more variants of the s650 and you're gonna like it goddamnit lol. In all seriousness, this is a little bit of what I was concerned about with the GTD. When that car was first shown off, I had concerns it would make getting excited for future s650 variants more difficult because we were already used to the most hardcore version right out of the gate.
