Sorry, just to clarify, I'm referring to the Lincoln prototypes that were spied about a week ago because Ford owns Lincoln, and they often start testing their Ford/Lincoln prototypes around the same time. It's not a case of me seeing a prototype mustang, it's just me seeing Ford/Lincoln mules...

But again, it depends on if Ford still plans on launching s750 near the end of the 2020s or if it's gonna get pushed further out.

Has Ford said they'll reveal the next mustang for the 125th anniversary? No, that's just a fun idea I have, because we know unless something changes, that's pretty close to when Ford's launching the next gen mustang anyways. So it would just be really neat for Ford's 125th for them to do a bunch...

There's a balance. For a while, Ford released a new mustang design every 5 years or so. We don't need a new design that often, but I also don't want to see Ford going 10 years with s650.

True, but I mean for this upcoming spring/summer season.

I believe the next gen is scheduled to release in 2028/2029 as a 2030 model year. It's my personal hope they reveal it for Ford's 125th anniversary in 2028.

My guess is the next platform will be a hybrid V8, a nice improvement over what we currently have. More performance, while still retaining the visceral feel, but doing more to hedge against strict emissions laws. I don't see mustang staying pure ICE or going full ev as both of those seem like...

Adriatic blue should be a multi generation color, it's that good imo.

We're starting to see Ford prototypes running around, so maybe we'll see something soon.

To be fair, that's by design. It would still be something with a 4 or 5 ft bed in theory, but using a sail pillar to sell the coupe look even more. Kinda like what the cyber truck does, but in a way that's actually attractive.

https://www.carscoops.com/2026/03/ford-performance-ute-revival/ That sounds pretty promising. Just for fun, I sketched up and did some AI renderings of what I would want something like a next gen ranchero to look like. The thing with utes I wanted to improve on was the fact that most of them...

I feel like Ford either needs to bring the prices back down, or elevate the mustang to be worthy of the prices they're commanding. Because while I love a lot of things about the s650, what Ford is doing isn't giving me the fizz. The s650 is a solid car, but it looks and drives like an s550 that...

Listen, we all go a little mad sometimes. It's just Jimmy's turn 😂.

The base price, around 100k for let's say 800hp, and other upgrades seems reasonable. But the other two prices are hard to swallow.

Jimmy needs to start selling crack.

Yeah, I don't know how much the learnings of the affordable EV platform will carry over to gas platforms, but according to insiders, if it's successful, Ford will try to implement at least some of what it's learned from that towards gas programs. It sounds like these new methods have reduced...

I see where you're coming from. It's hard to know if cd6 started out as a crossover platform, or if it started as a rwd modern unibody platform that just happens to have a crossover on it. That makes a lot of difference. The plan for cd6 was originally to have things like a rwd Ford and Lincoln...

Agreed. I believe the best solution instead of trying to shed a ton of weight by using expensive materials like carbon fiber, is to just improve weight distribution. I've said before I'd like for mustang to become front-mid to improve handling, like what the c7 offers. Considering the fact...

But aren't a lot of enthusiasts mad about the mustang moving more upmarket? They want it to become more affordable again. You can't have a new platform, a niche product, and a low price unless that product is shared with other models to get volume on your side.

To be fair, I looked it up, a cd6 explorer on the low end weighs about 4,300 lbs, not much more than a GTD lol. Keep in mind that's a 7 seater crossover that's like a ft and a half taller than a mustang. Remove half the seats, and a ft and a half of height, and you'd probably be left with...
