Whatever it is, it's Berkliegh's Bullet.

Berkliegh is 5 years old, and she decided Pawpaw should buy it when I was at the dealership for another reason entirely.

I'll ask her if it's a Mustang or not.
I think she thinks it's an Alexa Car though. ?

It's the horse that tells you what car it is. Show it, don't tell it.
But is it a "Real" Horse? ?

Maybe we should start a thread titled, "Is the Horse/Pony on the cars real?"

I am quite confident that many would say, "Well they are plastic and can't be real". Some just miss the whole point and can't see the forest through the trees.

The Mustang Mach E is a "real" Mustang and it is painfully clear but there are some still wanting argue the finer points if you will, of how the "real" Mustang can only have two doors and therefor can't be considered real?

I wonder how many doors Mustangs that you place a saddle on have? :crazy:

If the Mach E is the real Mustang, what is this?

And why can’t you find the Mach E on the Ford Mustang page?

Mach E also doesn’t show up as an answer on any of the FAQs on the Mustang page-

Thanks for proving my point by placing a link to show that the Mustang Mach E is actually an Icon. What is the Icon they are referring to? Wait for it...................... Mustang. ?

I have included screenshots that show up on the link you provided. You can clearly see that Ford is calling their EV an Icon.

The confusion comes into play by people that simply ignore the fact that the MME is labeled as a "Mustang Mach E". The MME sits within the EV section of Ford's website but it is still marketed as an Icon.

So in conclusion, it is not "just" a Mustang but rather a Mustang Mach E. The 4 Door EV car that Ford sells is advertised as a Mustang, it has the word Mustang on it and both are Icons.

It is kind of like Bronny James and Lebron James.

Do they have two different names? Yes. Do they have the same last name? Yes.

Does the Mustang Mach E and two door Mustang have different names? Yes. Do they both have the word Mustang on their Window Sticker? Yes.

The James are two different people and the Mustangs are two different cars but at the end of the day, they are both referred to with the same name included on their "birth certificate". Many people might suggest that he really isn't a "James" though. After all, he hasn't proved himself but they are still in the same family.

The 2 Door Mustang and the Mustang Mach E are in the same family and they are both referred to as Icons.

have a look at the history of mustangs, pretty much everything goes and some were very underwhelming (like the small underpowered pinto types), and the other end, muscle cars. mach-e is just fine imo as part of that histrory.

If you want to hear and watch an account recorded by Ford of Ford designers and engineers describing what they think they designed and engineered I suggest the following. This video was premiered October 27, 2020. The events were fresh in the minds of key players in the program.

The link below should work ...

Meet The Experts | Mustang Mach-E | Ford EU - YouTube

If not, go to YouTube, find the channel called "Ford News Europe" (It's much better than the Ford US channel). Then find the video called "Meet the Experts - Mustang Mach E - Ford EU".

Screen shot below gives you the presenters and time jumps.

Watch it, enjoy it. Draw your own conclusions on what key players in the car's development thought they were designing and engineering. I've drawn my conclusion. :cool:
