I sell Fords for a living and got a chance to drive a full ticket Mach E this week.

It is the most impressive car I have ever driven. Extremely fast. Instant power at all speeds up till 90 mph.

My wife works for a Ford dealership as well. She said the same thing. Despite that I think they're butt ugly.

Funny! I think many of the EV designs look ugly. I think this Mustang looks like it is overdue delivering a colt ... Hmm, maybe twins?

And somebody explain to me why so many EVs replace the grill with sheet metal. We have been programmed to see cars with grilles. It does not have to be a monstrosity like Audi and Lexus seem to prefer, but these EVs do require cooling, so a small opening would not need to be purely cosmetic.

I like what I’ve seen of the styling on the Hummer EV. CAR and DRIVER says first year models are limited to the top-end configuration, and start at $112,595! Second year models include a stripped down model (my description, but that is what it will be) for $79,995. So much for buying a new truck for its utilitarian capabilities.

I like the music that's in the EV Hummer ad, but I'm going to wait on liking any EV. Even Led Zeppelin can't substitute for a big rumbling V8.

Ahh! Ahh!
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow

The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands
To fight the horde, sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming

On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore

Ahh! Ahh!
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow

How soft your fields so green
Can whisper tales of gore
Of how we calmed the tides of war
We are your overlords

On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore

So now you'd better stop
And rebuild all your ruins
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all your losing

I've owned those, too! Here I am just before I got rid of My Avalon Limited when I was getting my Lexus.

There is and never will be a substitute for a big rumbling V8 burning GASOLINE.

The MustanK Mach-E is an ugly pig.
90mph ?? What's that ? I got PASSED on NB US23 today doing 90mph by a MSP Trooper !

Thankfully neither the Saturn 1B nor the Redstone make ANY MoPIG sounds.

Long live the V8 Corvette and Chevrolet !
