Hopefully Ford fixes those issues and takes responsibility…Hopefully they dont become the next GM or Toyota. We used to be a solely Ford family.

I just recently got away from Ford for two reasons. A. They are getting very expensive and B. No more Z plan. Other than that, my multiple mustangs, including a GT500, a Crown Vic and an Edge equated to zero problems. Edit Two Escort ZX2s as well ---

I actually think that prototype sounds cool. And the video of the GT idling is what Renzo’s truck sounded like with exhaust and tune. Constant turbo noise. ---

My guess is they need to produce X number of units to compete as a production car. So they know the supply and they estimate the demand is high enough to command that price. I am pretty sure these are being hand built in CAN by Multimatic. ---
