I don't have a Mustang, BUT...I will answer the general question. How often do I have people in my back seat? Answer, rarely. With the exception of the below, maybe 3 times in the past 6 years I am a work from home/travel employee, meaning when I am not in my home office, I am at the airport...

Yep, but that thread is about a year old since the last post on it, which is why I asked here. I didn't want to necro that one, plus the whole "Camaro announcement" does change things.

DISCLAIMER: I am using the Mach 4 as a placeholder name because that is one of the names Ford has used/trademarked in referencing this subject. I would prefer they find a non-mustang name as well. That said, the uses of Mach 4 and Mustang derivative are there to focus on it being a specific...

It's going to be interesting to see the choices they make. They have a few options and a lot of being bandied about right now 2 door midsize vehicle - basically the size of the outgoing Camaro 109/110" wheelbase. 2+2. If this happens, I would also expect a convertible model. 4 door midsize...

I would argue that transmissions are about being able to control your car by ensuring you are in the power band as you are wanting to put the foot down…or using the engine as a brake down long steep hills, etc. for thing like parlor tricks of making an engine crackle…that’s going to be the...

I know some people love to row their own, but the automatics of today are a heck of a lot better than the automatics of previous years. I would take a modern auto with paddle shifters over a manual anyday, but I would take a DCT over either. I would rather keep my hands on the wheel while...

Not heard that. In fact, I know they put out several Riviera concepts over the years and they recently re-trademarked the name...something they might not do if they had officially retired it. They did stop making it though, which is what you might be thinking.

A number of companies have soured on EVs for right now. Too expensive, not enough payback, especially in high energy cost areas like California where you might end up paying 79 cents per kWh to charge your car at home. There is a general wave of US companies that have been saying they are...

Honestly, I don’t mind a turbo engine. Granted I prefer a v-8 turbo. But as someone who has to go through mountain passes to see family, I find the turbo can eliminate on of the biggest NA drawbacks, loss of power at altitude, the biggest issue is ensuring that they have a system that...

Actually thought of another classic name that Buick could use for a personal luxury Grand Touring sedan....The Riviera

wife and I are both liking that news. Hoping Ford comes out with their Mach 4 so there is a good competition. Between electricity rates going sky high here and the costs of EVs over ICE counterparts, it's not worth it to go electric right now as the payback period is too long on some of the...

I was under the impression that the Dodge Charger ICE is all motor, no hybrid. The two drivetrains were ICE and EV, no hybrid at all. I admit, the BMW 550i hybrid left me disappointed in terms of how it drove and the Dodge EV Charger just felt awful. I have not driven the six-pack versions

If they can get a V8 into the CT4 size, I would jump on that. I preferred the CT4 to the CT5 when I test drove them both, but honestly, I was not impressed with the Caddy cabin. Hoping Buick can do it better. I like how the GMC Sierra HD cockpit is laid out, both the Denali and non-Denali...

The article I read https://carbuzz.com/chevrolet-camaro-return-buick-sport-sedan/ indicates that it would on the alpha platform, which is the same platform the previous Camaro was on. This does not mean a return to the old design, but it means that it COULD be a 2 door "pony" car, just as much...

It all depends, but yes, this could be normal. 1) does your dealer have allocation for the car being built? If not, you need to wait for that next allocation to be available, which might add a month or two 2) lots of people order Mustangs for Spring. Let's face it, Mustangs are 3 season cars...
