Personally have no issues
Personally have no issues with the Mach-E. As a Mustang fan for as long as I remember and being born just 11 days after our beloved pony car, extending the name to other types of vehicles honestly seemed like a logical business decision.
As long as the actual Pony Car exists, what’s the harm? Some say the Mustang II isn’t a pony car. “A 4 or 6 cylinder engine shouldn’t be in the cars.” Or they aren’t “real” Mustangs.
Have no desire to own another crossover. (Wife has one). But putting the Mustang name on one would get me, a lifetime Mustang person, to look at them while we didn’t look at other Ford crossovers before buying her current one.
Could care less what others think of my eco boost S550. Its my Mustang, and I love it.
