Ford Mustang Mach E

[jason05gt]

Styling is subjective, 1/4 mile times are not. I like the way the Tesla looks. I just hate the minimalistic interior and I don't care about self driving.

People buy cars on styling both inside and out, not 1/4 mile times.

We look at things from an enthusiast viewpoint, but most people buying cars are shopping for "appliances" and do not research Nurburgring times or trap speeds. I bet that if most Tesla owners actually did a full pull, they'd soil themselves as they've never experienced a fast car and are not car guys/gals.

So what you’re saying is since the infotainment system on the Mach E is a buggy laggy nightmare, people shouldn’t buy it?

How did you get that out of what I posted? You Tesla fanboys are an odd bunch.

C'mon. I drove a 2021 Model Y for two weeks and became very familiar with how to reset a frozen touchscreen. At least if the Mustang's touchscreen freezes, you still have a speedometer.

I'm not playing favorites; they have their pros/cons, but touchscreen reliability is a strength of neither.

I drive a tesla every day and not once have I had to reset it.

Jesus I didn’t realize how few of these are out there

We are shopping for another vehicle and was surprised they are available and on lots for Decent prices. My worry is the same as I previously had with a rare low production model. 5 years from now when something goes wrong and you are forced to pay big bucks to fix them.

Post those decent prices? new ones are hard to come by and those are selling for way over msrp. I see them go thru the auction used and it’s just stupid the way the market is.

I say decent because new vehicle prices are skyrocketing over $100k. I am just searching on auto trader and even when dealers post the market adjusted prices you can get one for $60k-ish. Right now that isn’t a bad price for a vehicle of that caliber. And I can’t believe I am even saying that. The most I ever spent on a vehicle was my 2011 raptor at $50k.

Anything used right now is way over priced.

Eh, it's not that low-volume. They've still sold more YTD than any single car in Lincoln's lineup.

 

[SleeperLS]

I drive by a dark gray one from time to time out by my place, and I still think they look great. Would own if I didn’t care how I spent my money.

 

[Pewter-Camaro]

Funny. I saw one on the road just a couple days ago. Wife said WTF is that? I said Mustang. She said no that white car. I said, “it’s a mustang.” She said No!! That white car!! I say, “Yeah the one with the mustang logo on the back. It’s a new electric mustang.” She says it’s stupid and ugly and how is that a mustang? lol!!

Did you review one yet?

 

[Gone_2022]

I’m not really surprised that it’s not selling very well.

Here’s our first drive. I’ll share my impressions when I get a sec.

"In our tests we can cover up the camera, we could not look at the road and it really doesn't give any alerts to the driver to make sure they are looking where they are going," says Fisher.

Overall, Tesla fell seven spots to 23rd place in Consumer Reports ranking of 32 major auto brands. It's the poorest showing in the seven years Tesla has been included in the "Top Picks" issue.


In addition to concerns about Tesla's Autopilot system, Consumer Reports is critical of the automaker's steering yoke, a change from the steering wheel in the Model S and Model X. Fisher says using the yoke is frustrating. "It is not just about making it harder to turn the wheel, but they also got rid of the turn signal stalk," he said.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but Tesla’s are not nice cars. Now that the big OEM’s are getting serious about EV, Daddy Elon is going to have problems.
