I did miss the point there, my apologies.

That's a very lazy perspective. We have literally seen that perspective disproven by the innovations that all manufacturers have made with their engines. Ford, and just about every other manufacturer is proving that you can have both fuel economy, power, and a cleaner vehicle all at the same...

Which I think is a bit unfortunate. I wish there was justification to create a lighter, stiffer platform for the S650.

According to Ford Authority and their sources, it looks like the Mustang will stay on a unique chassis that instead incorporates elements from the CD6. This calms my fears about the Mustang becoming too large and gaining too much weight. What about you guys? Ford Has No Plans To Use CD6...

Why? GM designed a modular Alpha platform used in many vehicles. Why can't Ford reap the same benefits? Just because it's the same platform, doesn't mean the wheelbase will be the same as an Explorer or Aviator. Basically the CD6 platform is a rear-drive platform which allows for AWD...

What I find hilarious is that people tend to forget perspective. I'm sure these heated arguments were happening when discussing the switch from leaded to fully unleaded gasoline as a standard. Or getting rid of the carbureted engine. Or putting ABS in cars standard. Or requiring passenger air...

How dare you present logic and reason here! There is a time and place, and this ain't it!

Has anyone thought about the fact that more Mustangs sold = more reason for Ford to spend money improving it? Think about it, the Shelby GT350 and GT350R only became products because of the successes of the S197 platform. The S197 revived the Mustang brand in ways that gave us the Shelby GT500...

You realize Ford made the decision to build a hybrid Mustang probably years ago, correct? There is a lot of engineering that goes into determining the feasibility of new vehicles.

In addition to this, the 700 new jobs were added specifically for electrification/autonomous vehicles. The CAFE regulations and market competition drove this decision in conjunction with promises of lower tax rates. Nothing more, nothing less.
