What? No love for the '76 Cobra Duce? :poop: lol. I've just always hated the 2's. Never had one but I towed a good number of the ones that were in my high school (back in the early 90's).

I am good with a '68 made to look like it, the original is not neccessary.
Cool. Maybe I should look for a ‘64 Tempest to become the car in my avatar, because it’s unobtanium also (even though I hear the current owner will entertain offers). ??

All this does is prove that people at Ford are having the same debate.

So the final answer to the question, “Is the Mach E a Mustang?” Is, “It’s debatable.”

Even the very forum we are debating on is called “Mach E forum,” for good reason. It’s something different.
There is usually a plausible side to every debate. This is not the case. Ford named it a Mustang and it has Mustang emblems on it along with the MSRP and Title having the name Mustang on it.

Like I mentioned to the one of the other posters, if one has a particular view of something in their head, they often can't change that view even though it is staring them right in the face.

Just because almost everything is different from the OG Stang, does not mean it is not a Mustang.

People debate stupid things everyday and I think I have fallen into that trap with this "debate".

It is a Mustang. Not because I think it is a Mustang but rather I clearly see the name Mustang on it.

You may not accept it but that really doesn't matter. It is not up for debate when the facts are so clearly shown to be a Mustang...................Mustang Mach E.

If I were to call someone a doofus and then later I called them a doofus head, at the end of the day they are still a doofus no matter what adjective I place in said name. ;)

Not to push around, because like you I see the car as a Mustang, but where on the car do you see the name “Mustang”? I only see Mach-e on my doors.

When you get into your Mustang the next time, look down after opening the door. You will see MUSTANG and only the word Mustang. Not Mach E or Mustang Mach E but simply Mustang.

Then......................close your eyes and pretend you did not see that and continue this "debate". ;)

Now that we have solved this can you work on getting the administrators of this forum to put the word Mustang somewhere on it. I mean seriously, it is called the Mach E Forum, we need to get that changed. ?

But what about 1969? Did they redeem themselves?

Haha. You know, I think it's the size. I'm not fond of big cars and think I was not too fond of the mega snouts they developed. To some though, these are iconic. :)


Nice scoops though.

That just sounds ... off. :p

I tried changing my avatar picture here once. I almost was drawn, quartered, and had my parts spiked in the far four corners of the forum.

I had the explode on rear (slightest) impact 1973 Pinto for my first car. Pinto or Puahi for the picture? Decisions, decisions. ;)

Now....................look at the word Mach-E on the header of this page and then pan out just a touch. If you see a horse, would you like to take a guess on what type of horse that is?

List of Horse Breeds then click on the word Mustang

It is like what they used to do at the Movie Theaters. They would show you an image and another image would appear (like popcorn) and all of sudden you would want popcorn w/o remembering or knowing you saw an image of Popcorn (subliminal messaging). You only see the word Mach-E but what you don't realize is that you have an inkling of seeing something else but you can't quite put your finger on it.

Drumroll please...................................... MUSTANG. ? Don't tell anyone else. ;)

Oh I saw the horse but it is lacking in the name, in my opinion. And, I hate to break it to you but, Ford also has a horse, are you ready, wait for it, .............................. it's call a BRONCO!!!!!!! ?

You have a point but it is just that, a point.

The word Bronco is nowhere to be found on the Mustang (at least I haven't found the word Bronco on it?)

The word Mustang is clearly visible on both my car, MSRP sticker and title.

Now I could say it was a Pinto or even Maverick as well but once again, I don't recall seeing the word Pinto nor Maverick on my car either?

The "Horse" is a Mustang. Later on tonight you will most likely want to drive your Mustang and for the life of you, you won't know why? You won't feel compelled to drive a Bronco because the subliminal message is still hard at work from the image you did or didn't see?

In any case, you will come around and then "the man" will take it down because subliminal messaging is illegal (I think?)

Yeah, I checked and mine says “GT” ?.

so that must make mine the Mach E GT, not the Mustang Mach E.

honestly it never occurred to me that the more performance-oriented version of a car touted as a legit “Mustang” (until Farley of course) doesn’t even have a single word reading “Mustang” on it in any conspicuous place I can think of.

Not that it matters to me though, this car will always be a Mustang to me! Nobody saying anything can change that ?.

Because I have a Premium and have never been in a GT, I was on the assumption they all said MUSTANG on the door sill?

You did, at one time have the word MUSTANG on your GT though. The window sticker said as such.

Just order another sticker and place it on and ta da, you can now proudly display that your car is a Mustang!!
