    I can get over the electric Mustang a LOT more easily than the 'Four door Mustang'!

    They must have figured Chrysler did it with the Charger so why not...

    The last Yamaha I worked on also had a surge tank under the cowl, so the low pressure pump fed the high pressure pump inside the surge tank. I’d probably check that for water too.

    It was to get it instant name and brand recognition. Agreed, the Mustang Mach-E is easier to swallow than it being a shitty 4door eco-crossover now, but ultimately and in reality, we dedicated car-guy types aren't the ones out buying new cars and establishing the buy-side of the market, which is why they used the moniker to sell a new car with an old name. See also the abomination that is the new Chevy Blaser.

    The only cohort of car guys actually setting the market for a named lineage are those that pray at the altar of the Church of Corvette. Sure it went mid-engine and will likely go electric shortly, but I suspect they'll discontinue it the way of the Charger/Challenger before they added an extra set of doors.

    Saw a high end Porsche 4 door the other day. Might need the back seat to go buy a house in one but that’s about it. Kinda looked like wearing socks with sandals.

    I've seen a few of them around here. Calling it a Mustang just ain't right. :puke:

    Those mountain views (minus the construction) are why I love our mountains so much!

    Those things are wonderful, especially the soft centers!

    When my dirt Road got paved Mr GPS told everyone it was a high speed short cut between two state highways .

    When you don`t know the road and set yourself up with your 53' trailer the local heavy duty towing company makes good money picking your trailer back up .

    Smaller vehicles 60mph is common so my 25 mph causes them to pass . The winter spring that freezes overnight gets exciting .

    Know what you mean. Google updated maps just a tad too quick on a highway interchange that wasn’t quite built yet. Glad they made the correction right quick. Might have not ended well.

    Sounds like Waze drivers. That app has you cutting through parking lots and stuff if its set to the "shortest distance" setting.

    PMB performance is just down the street from my work, and their back lot must have no kidding 20 Porsche 914s in various conditions. An oddity among Porsche models, but do look like fun.

    I look at it as entertainment as i no longer need to go to work.

    I will not ever go up the mountain it sucks pulling onto a 3 lane highway. Crashes all the time.
