CA power grid is off the hook! Other states should copy ca. Is it any wonder Elon started in ca?Agree, not to mention that the larger issue of power grid capacity isnt up for the job as is, let alone ALL our vehicles needing charging...

Add millions of vehicles to it over the next 10 years? Not without a shit load of new NG power plants or nuke power.

How dare you pollute and No 3 mile Island in my backyard. My dad worked for Babcock Willcox during that whole fiasco and that was the main driving force on why he didn't get to retire from there.
Additionally, your Torino is absolutely gorgeous!
If you can pass it on to those who can make the decision, we the people just want the option for that 5.0 Coyote in fast cars and trucks. We owners can take care of the rest. I'd say the 7.3 Godzilla as well, but even I know that will never trickle down to Mustang or F-150. But it should...Thank you! It is an older restoration when I bought it and is holding up nicely after some modifications. I drive it almost every weekend and it is not something that just sits in a garage.
I very much hope we will NOT design and produce products like FCA. I cannot think of a company that has a lineup of older products right now. What I do like of course is adding their Hellcat engine into certain products and making them exciting. Sadly, with upcoming emissions targets and things like that, I do not see much a future with dropping a 700hp in everything.

Id say that this is a PERFECT time to bring back the Galaxie brand. While Ill never be in the market for an all electric vehicle, I understand why its got to be explored. I just dont want the guys that want a V8 like me to get pushed aside for no reason.I so completely wish the 5.0 would be dropped in more vehicles because that is what I want also. I have nothing to do with powertrain design but I can only hope there. I want more enthusiast type vehicles, and thankfully we have the Bronco now, but I think having an actual car guy at the helm will be better for us. Which is pretty much what gave us the Ford GT.
I think our days for those kind of things are VERY limited with the overall fleet emissions coming. We have to make 0 emissions vehicles to get our fleet mileage down but at least we can make a Mustang Mach-E and not a Chevy Volt type Electric vehicle. Even as most people dont like the "Mustang" being used on the Mach-E at least it is a fun product.

Electric Transit? Absolutely
Electric small car? Absolutely
Electric full size (Galaxie)? Absolutely
Then that should offset a 7.3 Raptor lmao

This is the design courtyard turntable where every Ford vehicle in NA since 1955 has been designed and where the clay models of the design themes are reviewed. Behind it is the design showroom which shares the same history. All of the finished models are brought into the showroom to show upper management or for media reviews.

Here is also the design studio that, from my knowledge, this vehicle was developed and designed in. In the early 60's this is also the studio where the very first models of the Mustang were reviewed, chosen, and developed. This studio will sadly be coming down also but I have been lucky to have worked in it.
