I'll never understand allowing a brand decision to affect someone's behavior in a way that is just toxic for anyone wanting a great electric car that isn't a Tesla.
Do I want to be in a local Mustang chapter? No. Do I think the Mach-e deserves respect for being a fantastic car that people actually want? Yeah, I do. Ford is to be commended for taking risk at an uncertain time and delivering a great car. Not a perfect car, but a great one.
I have found the comments and snubs from the ICE Mustang community to be disheartening, unwarranted, and overly personal for no reason at all. They may not like the fact that this vehicle shares design elements with the Mustang, but to be so offended by a name that it brings out such toxicity is something I find repulsive, childish, and sad. I'd love to learn more about ICE Mustangs directly from their owners, but this territorial bullshit turns me off from that idea quickly.
At the end of the day, I love my Mustang Mach-e. It fits my family, it's high quality, looks good, and it's a thrill to drive. Thank you Ford, and thanks all for giving this venting a read.
