Another dire sales report [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

It is important to distinguish between the US and all other markets for the Mustang.

It may be a dime a dozen rental car in the US but in ALL other countries the Mustang is a low volume prestige car.
In the Dominican Republic I seen a black Mustang pull up. I noticed it lacked the all telling Nostrils in its grill letting one know it's a GT 5.0, which Ecoboosts lack. Then as it was moving into it's stall I noticed the 5.0 badge. As it parked there was a running horse on it trunk lid, which is also distinguishes it from the GT. I actually rather have the running horse badge on my DH. GT badge does nothing for me. Since I'm an ex Chevy guy the Big Red SS is my Viagra, and not the GT. 👍🏼😇

It's a stupid game being played at a very high level. Unfortunately it's us, the regular folks, that are taking it up the ass.
Should have chosen a better career path.

Sadly this has been happening in America for 50 years. We're taking it back. Things will change. Maybe Elon should run Ford a Harley - Davidson. That'll change America's exhaust tune.

Not sure how you can take things back you never had, but dream on!

Tell me how "We" didn't have it. I'd really like to know. Really.
It's a trap , just block him like everyone else has. He will get you banned while saying whatever he wants to rile you up.

It's real easy to look at this and think the Mustang is doomed because sales are bad compared to the Mach-E. Everyone needs to consider that the ICE Mustangs have undergone large price hikes and large dealer mark-ups which are driving the once affordable pony out of the reach of many enthusiasts. On the other hand, the Mach-E has had price cuts, dealer incentives and savings, reduced APR financing, and in some states qualifies for a tax credit, bringing the overall cost to purchase significantly lower than that of the traditional Mustang.

In context, this makes it look much less likely that people are buying the Mach-E because demand is high and people want them, but rather the demand wasn't high enough for what Ford produced and they needed to put them on sale to offload the inventory they had sitting on lots. It may take a few years, but I think everything will balance out.
this electric fad is so annoying
Just morons who don't know buying an electric is about the dumbest thing you can do. You lease them, you don't buy them

The amount of ignorance in the world today never fails to surprise me daily.
People thinking they are saving the planet driving electric.
Also the rush to put all our info into the cloud so we can be wiped out is another one that amuses me.
Humans are in a race to destroy themselves… I just don’t understand why

Of course some people hold a different view to that - and quite possibly think you are a moron for holding the view you do.

Those people would be idiots though. If an idiot thinks someone is a moron, does it matter?
Think carefully. And yes I realize the irony in that suggestion
