Some interesting quotes:

"New electrical architecture will enable new feature content at launch, like a fully digital instrument cluster and today's latest safety and driver assist features. It will also support over-the-air updates to an increasing number of software-enabled features, helping it stay as fresh as ever over its expected eight-year lifespan. "

"The rumor mill has hinted at a plug-in version offering at least 10 or 20 miles of electric range, and this would undoubtedly boost efficiency and possibly contribute in some small way to achieving higher corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) ratings coming for 2026. "

10 - 20 miles ........... WTF ??

Any Ford that we ever had would automatically self destruct at 125K. So I would say that's about right.

One of my favorite games is GTA 5. They have been doing all these add on's online for nearly 9 years now. I don't play online so it does me no good. GTA 7 should be coming out in that amount of time right now. So far me I don't want an upgrade, I want a new game

Now for my car, if they kept updating the software and adding HP I wouldn't need a new car and would be cool with that

The difference is a game that cost $50 compared to the cost of a new car

I think it’s funny so many here mock Ford but yet Dodge going bankrupt numerous times totally abandoned the Muscle car era during the 80s and 90s. But yet Ford soldiered on and honestly had Ford done what Dodge did most here would not have a Dodge Challenger And or it would be a Mitsubishi Challenger like in the 80s and the Plymouth brand as well brining back the Plymouth in Horizon body. Dodge chased the GT500 model to bring the current HC HP numbers. So go ahead and mock Ford and for me I love Dodge but Ford did me a hell of a favor by forcing Dodge to get off there ass and out do Ford. Scary to think Ford abandons the ICE AGE since Dodge will probably follow and just offer EV cars only. And now the Ram side TRX has a new competitor with the. Raptor R Predator motor SC 2023. Does Ram cave or bring something bigger and badder and if they do than you need to thank Ford.

Ford could put 10000hp in the mustang I would never buy one. The Challenger is the only true muscle car. Mustang is a pony car/sports car. Dodge had a few great years that no other manufacturer will ever compare against 1970-1971 with the Challengers 1991 and on with the Vipers and 2015-2022 with the Hellcats Redeyes and Demons. Those are historic cars that changed the game.

I can wait 2 more years.

Looks like Ford is planning to keep a V8 Mustang available until 2030 or so.

Things can change real fast. Could be longer or shorter and other companies could change too. If electric flops like it has in the past ICE may come back, some depending on who is pulling the strings

I love all cars, the shitty`er they are the more money you make fixing them !!

I'm hoping that with the redesign, there will be room for that 7.3 engine, and that there will be some nice model with that. It would be a good ICE send-off for the Mustang before it goes all electric.

The good thing seems to be that even though Ford already has an all electric Mustang, they haven't scrapped the V8 yet.

I think you forgot the 2008 SRT Challenger that lit the fire again. Mine was #904 of the limited edition.

Damn funny.

Thanks... (he's such an easy target...)
