To My Surprise...

...no front camera. My Premium had one. I think all Mach Es may have one. So I assumed (yeah I know) the GT would too. Nope, not the base GT. It will only cost you $1900 at ordering time. No camera up there. Just a horse that lights up.

Technically you do have a front camera behind the rear view mirror. But yeah the other one, down below the front hood, is missing.

Same for Select without the tech package... A GT without the tech package is missing the side cameras, driver attention monitoring camera, and maybe some other stuff needed for park assist, surround view, and BlueCruise.

Didn’t order 360/Active 2.0?

That seems weirdly cheap!?!?

Seems like this is becoming super common with people not reading the options sheet for the GT version. People keep being surprised that it doesn't have the front camera/360 pano camera.

I don’t think so, Ford has been doing this since I don’t know how long, at least since 2006 when I got my GT. The purpose is to make the higher performance variants more accessible, i.e., if you are interested in performance, but not luxury, you don’t have to spend dough on all the premium features in order to access the GT.

It does have front parking sensors though right?

Wait, people are getting surprised their custom ordered GT doesn't have what they didn't order?

GT comes standard with alot of Co-Pilot 360 features. Just not ALL of them.

As my daddy useta say... When you go to a restaurant you ain't never been to before, read the danged menu.

That’s the beauty of most small Chinese restaurants. The good ones let you order off the menu, so you can order whatever you want. They just tend to not want me in there. ?

But they don’t order brakes either. They assume that what’s on a Premium is also on a GT, with upgraded features. Camera delete is not an upgrade.

Why would a reasonable person assume "GT" is an upgrade to "Premium"?

I think many folks are just presuming the GT is a logical step up from the premium, and as such would have all the techie stuff. Apparently not a valid presumption. I was unaware of this until some comments started popping up, but I also wasn't buying a GT so ...

Costs more.
