I can't decide which line I like better. "Recreational outrage" or "discount rack Joe Rogan"??? ??

Awesome writing.

Special callout to Thunderbird, too! ;)
It was a poetic presentation, refreshing. Too bad the comments from the peanut gallery were so negative. Amazing how much the very name triggers such hate.

I'm going to be honest, I'm conflicted. I have no trouble with Ford calling it a Mustang (and there seems to be no intent for Ford to fully replace the ICE coupe Mustang with an electric Crossover any time soon, so it's basically a spinoff.)

But if it weren't for the Mach-E, there's no way in hell I'd ever buy a Mustang, because every one I've ever driven has been fairly unpleasant.

So maybe that's an argument for it Not being a Mustang.

I like the review but disagree with the visibility of the center screen. (It's a lot better than the Tesla which has a pretty UI but you need reading glasses to read some of the alerts and popups)

Also, does ANY car put Apple CarPlay or Android Auto turn-by-turn on their center display? (They seem to be unaware that Ford's NAV turn-by-turn does put turn-by-turn there, like most cars)

I absolutely get "next turn" directions on the steering wheel display when using waze over android auto, and Ford's own Nav does that too. My guess is that they had an iphone which does not yet support that over carplay, but supposedly that is coming soon.

Yeah this works for me with Google Maps on AA, also. And it works the same way on my Dad's 2018 CR-V. I'm guessing lots of cars support this with Android, and fewer with iPhone.

Ah. Cool. Iā€™ve not used AA and donā€™t think CarPlay has that feature - at least not on any of the cars Iā€™ve used it with. Thx.

The feature to pipe directions to the center screen has been around for a while, but it's up to each auto manufacturer to implement. As Tim mentioned above, it's been rumored to be coming soon for the MME. Some BMW models have had it for almost a year, so the support is there in iOS already.

This was easily my favorite review because it kind of summed up why I liked the vehicle so much. It's fun. It drives well.
They even kind of identified what I don't like about the LR Model Y.
It really is a weird thing too, because well...its not easy to put your finger on.

It is still hard to believe that last year they started to produce the Mustang Mach-E electric crossover under the legendary Mustang name. Externally it instantly attracts the eye because it looks attractive, bright, harmonious, and sporty. The main emphasis in the car's interior is made on color displays, and its interior uses high-quality but inexpensive plastics and faux leather. I recently learned on the automotive news portal https://zumroad.com/automotive that a new top-of-the-line 480-horsepower version with a GT prefix will soon please us. Someday I will buy myself an electric car, and it will be a Ford Mustang Mach-E.
