Good. That’s what you get for making the Mustang into a 4 door jellybean looking SUV.

I got a 2021 F150, 3.5L Twin Turbo, 10 spd. towards the end of last year.

With a fair, at least quartering tailwind, it got ~23.5 mpg on 87 Octane E0 gas over 630 mi. today [self reporting..].

It can go over 750 miles on a tank of E0, under summer temperature, tailwind conditions.

With the lowest offered numerical axle ratio, it runs ~1850 rpm at 80 mph.

YMMV.

Drill, baby, drill....

Every.single.time. some smug Biden Cabinet official or Government leftist makes a prediction or smart-ass remark, it seems they have their foot in their mouth within days.

That c*** Debbie Stabenow comes to mind immediately.

Kind of happy to hear it.
Anything to slow the “Green” charade.
ICE cars are underwriting the EV’s.
But fewer ICE cars means that sort of rob Peter to pay Paul cannot continue indefinitely.
Ford may be “Too big to fail”, but they are not the Fed. Gov.
Glad I am not a stock holder.

That’s what happens when you rely upon a non-renewable source of materials.

Tesla just raised prices and, u like Ford, its buyers can’t get a $7500 tax credit since Tesla is non-union. With all that, the sales keep setting records. And Musk has never paid for a single ad. Ford has already spent $90 million on ads for e-cars it has yet to deliver!

Everyone wants an electric car.....

Ford Loses $3.1 Billion, Hit by Investment and Chip Shortage
Ford has reported a $3.1 billion loss for the first quarter, in large part because of a drop in the value of its investment in an electric-vehicle startup.

OK, OK thanks for posting. We make a run every few weeks if we can to San Diego from our home in Riverside, and have seen those things on the Freeway, but couldn’t identify them. NOW we know.

Yeah, as somebody said in an earlier post “Butt Ugly”. Wouldn’t be caught expired in one. Somebody might think we were liberals.

I predicted this years ago. 500,000 pounds of raw materials to produce 1 EV battery. Unsustainable especially now that diesel fuel cost are through the roof. Marxists think that EV batteries come from the battery store. A lithium ion tool battery that cost $100 two years ago is now $250.

Ford’s F-series pickup truck carries the brand and more than makes up for the profit losses of other models.

LOL. No more ICE cars after 2035. Right. Hilarious. They know not what they do. What maroons.

I take it back. They know exactly what they are doing, which is to destroy American society. They want cars to be available only for the rich so everybody else must take public transit.
