10 years I’ve been given a 50 year sentence😁
That's actually quite the feat! My parents were at 52 years when dad passed. Really, though, the fact you two are still together after all that time is awesome!

And the new Chevy Bolt (not high performance) actually charges to 80% faster than the MME or the Model Y. Model Y is not state of the art, neither are the Tesla Superchargers. Even the Tesla chargers derate quickly in warm temperatures when you charge a vehicle that can take in 500A for 10-15 minutes. Their 250kw chargers actually are only about 120kw continuous.
The Bolt has a tiny battery

For that matter Ioniq 5 "350kw" is not really 350 kw

This is before the teardown of Tesla and BYD, which Farley and crew did in the year afterward. Farsighted

But as we know they may be a bit too easy to abandon market segments

Nevertheless, there are merits to rebooting a whole product with a fresh look. The danger is customers forget you exist

Even though I have the Electric Bmw, I still have a soft spot for Mustang of course. And I was very impressed that I saw like 10 of them within an hour down here on the Gulf Coast, which when I had mine, it was like me and like one other person. So when I went down to use the electrify America station today, there was two Mustangs there and then I saw three like driving towards town then I saw like four others so that’s like the most I’ve seen in this area so I’m glad to see they’re becoming more popular down south. But now you say they’re gonna be discontinuing them in the future?
It will be replaced by an improved platform, which unfortunately may take several years. Note that your own BMW is being discontinued
I don't see a post from you yet on the M50. How do you like it?

If I had to give up the electric Mustang, that's probably the one I would get next.
I admit I'm a hater; the m50 chassis is subtly superior, but interestingly not that noticeable compared to the GT, and Ford's throttle mapping is a lot better, Ford's one pedal is better and Ford's 2025 ADAS is a lot better

i4 would still be one of my top choices though, after Ford and after Hyundai, so if those two didn't exist I might have an i4

I’ve had the Mustang the Bmw is superior ride. I’m very aware that they’re not making it anymore and that’s why I’m only leasing it for three years and onto the IX4. That’s gonna get almost 500 miles to a charge. Maybe who knows
