When they say they want to compete with Porsche, I believe they mean in terms of how Porsche has structured their lineup, Ford wants to mirror that. You got the s650, that's the 911, things like the GTD are Ford's GT3 RS, if they do a mustang raptor, it'll be like the off-road safari 911. The mach-e is the cayenne, you got the sedan, maybe they do something under the s650 and that's like Fords cayman.    I personally believe the Corvette is more of a mustang rival than the 911, but I get why Ford makes the Porsche comparison. 

I personally thought it was a good looking vehicle. Probably a combination of cash issues and lower than expected EV demand.

I agree with you that the price is still a contributing factor. Even in 2023, the base price was still $39740.  Now the price is $45,460, which I’m not even sure includes destination. That was only a little over a year ago.  Very few people’s income is keeping up with that type of inflation and that amount will be noticeable on a payment. IMO, either Ford is intentionally trying to keep the sales numbers low for CAFE reasons, or they’ve just gotten carried away with the pricing.     I don’t mind if they make a new Mustang variant that falls under the namesake, but they need to keep the current model and add a more affordable high-performance model along the lines of the C8. The GTD isn’t even in the realm of affordable and therefore not particularly interesting to me.   

You would think huh?  But no, they can't afford to "engineer" it in or as I've been previously told the Godzilla creates too much underhood heat and they can't figure out how to handle that issue- an obvious BS excuse.   And 7m, plenty of 650/750's in inventory in central Mass.  One dealer has 15!   as an aside, I did a Google earth of OAP the other day.  completed yard is full of trucks....interesting either white, yellow (Penske?) or can't tell from aerial but either black or "Buster Brown".

Thinking of the new 2025 orders for customers that have not had the fun of waiting . There are a lot of great people that can guide and answer the questions for the new be"s... You all have been a great help to me over the last 3 years. Thank all.  I hope to report good news on my 3 plus year adventure on a F450 KR.

Not entirely. When VW added the flower vase with a rose to the retro beetle’s dashboard it became dead to men but women went gaga over it. It was a brilliant marketing move if the goal was to sell only to women.

This is so odd as Stellantis was saying last week that this car was coming soon and Chrysler had a bright future.   My guess is that maybe they sent the car to a test group like Ford did with the "bullet train car" and it isn't go over well. Or the other possibility is that the cash position of Stellantis is falling faster than expected.

Where can I find the Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor on a 2004 Lincoln aviator V8 motor?

I like rtr. I think this will be good for the ecoboost. Lower trims usually don’t look as good as the higher trims and this fixes that.

But will they have more soon?
