Hi Jim, who decides on what colors will be available for the Mustang vehicles and can they add more color choices for the 2025 DH model please? All the dealers around me have the Vapor Blue color or the black and some of these dark shades of color that on a cloudy day look almost invisible to other drivers. I care about safety and would like to see lighter colors such that other drivers of large SUVs like the Expedition do not hit me. Please consider adding other colors even as extra price option for 2025 model year of the DH model. Thank you!
I went with racing red which is very visible. I like the white but I am not sure it's very visible here on the desert. It probably would be a good color for back east where trees are closer than a quarter mile apart. I agree with you on some of the other colors. They aren't good night colors and while the car lights up pretty well at night, If you park it, it might not be very visible.

I am looking for the same color as you have selected, but so far no luck. I test drove the DH in that vapor color and wished it was red or grabber blue. BTW- the car is fantastic and so it the Tremec 6 speed. Enjoy your purchase and Congrats on your color choice!

A poster did a flyover with a drone at the plant before they started shipping and red wasn't a very common color. Probably because it's pretty visible to the law and the owners may intend to exceed the speed limit by a little bit. I did a special order to get mine so if color is an issue, you may need to do the same.

Please fix this issue on the 2024 cars. It is silly to let the aftermarket folks make repair kits to cover poor engineering vehicle platform work to save a dime per vehicle.



Is this quality job 2??

Let's tweet this video to @jimfarley98 and see if we get a response. He is a car guy after all so hopefully someone at Ford see's it and we at least get an explanation for those holes...

Ford.... Keep building ICE cars and your market share will surge. Back off on EV's because the time is not now. In the future maybe but not now. Just my 2 cents.

does anyone else get the message about the account owner limiting who can see the full profile when going to Ford's profile?

Yes.

While I cannot view the Ford profile details, I can others'.

Checking my own profile, Privacy settings, there are multiple options, allowing for who can see what. For example, mine is currently set to default, allowing it to be viewed by other Members. But I could also change it, to allow only specific individuals.

I suspect Ford selected the latter.
