“I remember the acronym as Fix Or Repair Daily”
Back in that day my father bought ‘53 Ford. Served as our truck and hunting vehicle for 8 years. No problems except for a broken window mechanism. He bought it back 4 years later!
You need to get out more!
“I had a 1998 GT and also had to replace the fuel pump at around the same time. Unknown miles, because I bought it used and the odometer didn’t work.”
Interesting. I thought that Ford hooked the fuel pump to the odometer to fail at 110k miles!
“If you want an electric Mustang-E, keep in mind that it is built in China.”
That is incorrect.
US built Mach E’s will be purchased by Americans. Ford has begun the process to make the Mach E in China for Chinese consumption.
When I was growing up (’79-80ish) my step father had in the garage a mint condition 1969 Mach 1 Mustang 351 with 600 miles on it. Wide wheels in the back. The engine had been balance and blue printed then painted black. With chrome headers and valve covers.
It as the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen.
Today I have an eco-boost Mustang and I really like it. I wouldn’t trade it for anything. It cruises at 100+ in a very smooth ride.
Pretty exciting to see a new Mach 1
Don’t you dare push my buttons!
Especially not twice!!

“Pretty exciting to see a new Mach 1”
Car and Driver says 480 hp but that is same as Bullitt. Mach-1 has always been higher and some sources are saying 525 hp.
Or perhaps it's, not so, in your case.
“For 50 grand, I would buy a used corvette. way more bang for the buck.”
Back that up with some data!
Actually made in Mexico
At least it has an interesting paint job but still not as cool as the 60s were. Cars are boring these days.
“Its true that carbon fiber is not itself a plastic.”
Yes but then he goes on to tell you that it’s actually carbon fiber reinforced plastic.
“At least it has an interesting paint job but still not as cool as the 60s were. Cars are boring these days.”
Yep, those old muscle cars got your heart pounding anytime you accelerated, hit the brakes or took a corner!

According to your logic we don’t need rebar in our bridges ...
Stay on topic. Don’t hijack.
The M4 costs 50% more....
