There was a prototype Mach-E at work today. I got a shot of me in the black shirt standing next to it for scale (I’m 5’11”).

It's a simple, two-step process:
  1. Get hired by Ford, ideally at the Mexico plant.
  2. Go to Ford as an employee and ta-da!
As they say on TV, "it's just that easy!"

I was thinking of bying a rapid red, but if i see the photos i am afraid the color is to bright (i am an old man of 60 and prefer a deeper red like the Mazda Red color). On some photos it looks like this. Difficult to judge

It is far from bright. I saw a color sample at the road show. It is more maroon than red. If it were bright red I would have gotten it and I am 64. Age is an attitude.

I'm a young man of 62. I found the Rapid Red to be too deep and maroon for my taste. I might have gone with Race Red. Instead I went with the Grabber Blue -- bright in any light!

What’s most entertaining to me watching these videos unearthed from a clearly much simpler time (looks like last January)...no masks! ?
I hemmed and hawed over another red ‘Stang as you can see in my avatar—love love love the Red Candy but alas went with Shadow Black. I really like both of those colors on the Mach-e (Yes Rapid Red is a tiny bit different, I think?) I guess I am going to enjoy washing my new electric car. Frequently ?

I am not sure but I think the Mazda color might be identical. I know that Ford and Mazda shared color formulas for a while but not sure if they still do. You can see Rapid Red on other vehicles at the Ford dealership before you decide against it.

I really like the red exterior white interior combo.

When I bought my house about 11 years ago I had one of the 500 yellow Parnelli Jones special edition Saleen mustangs. The dash was hand signed by JP. My wife let me paint the garage orange to match the car.

well the car is gone but the garage is still orange. I asked could I paint it grabber blue?? The answer was NO. Oh well I should have waited on the color back then.

cannot wait to get it and wash it. Already bought a whole new set of stuff from Chemical Guys.

The two reds share similar hues, somewhere between red and burgundy. But the Mazda Soul Red Crystal is still unmatched in my opinion. Their Deep Crystal Blue Mica is also stunning.

I just turned 60 this year. Had a red Mustang pedal car when I was 5, and always wanted a red Mustang, and that is my order.
If anyone starts calling me old, I will consider those fighting words. 60 is the new 40 as far as I am concerned! :D

Like what? I'm new to these cars that need careful hand washing.
I'm new to this too Mark. I watched their videos, and their stuff is also available on Amazon (chemical guys). I also watched Pan the organizer videos. Lots of good stuff. I decided just to go to AutoZone, buy the supplies for doing a two bucket wash and clay bar detail that they had on the shelf and order the Gold Eagle Graphene to try out on my two current cars. They turned out really great, and there are even more great products out now.
It was time consuming, but satisfying, and I will probably do the ME on my own with these products. I really can't afford to spend the money on a professional job or ppl film after I have spent this much on the car, and there is a "do it yourself" satisfaction you can get from the work.
I did not buy a polisher and do that step in the process but I may consider that too for the ME.
