Yeah. They didn’t do it with 4 - just strongly considered it. Cool wagons. :metal:

That’s natural gold tint from being raised on a diet of goldschlager and oats.

Ford Mustang Station Wagon.

Some examples were built as prototypes like a GT 350 and some people converted existing Mustang’s calling it the “hobo top” conversion iirc.

In what version is the Shelby gt350 not a Mustang? The 67, 16, 2020 were all built upon the Mustang chassis. The 67 was the only one truly a Shelby in name and truly man. Not to take anything away from the other two to honor the man. Same applies to the gt500.

The current mach-e and the sixth generation Mustang do not share the same chassis. They only share thr same marketing name. The mach-e is “not” a Mustang by any stretch of the imagination.

In the 70’s Ford came out with the Mustang II built on the pinto platform. This abomination was built during a time when no true Mustangs were built, a time when Ford realistically stopped producing the Mustang. The Mustang II is not a Mustang it is in essence a re-bodied Pinto.

I’m hesitant to include the gen-3 Fox body cars as Mustangs but they did breathe life back into the badge.

In my opinion, gen-4 is when Ford brought back the Mustang. And to the current day, the Mustang survived.

But the Mach-e is not a Mustang.

It’s funny how you guys laugh at station wagons and vans when you would have difficulties outrunning VW Transporter in your M5.

I didn’t laugh at any station wagon and don’t own an M5.

I hear the Mach E has similar interior space to the actual mustangs so there’s that.

An F150 Xtra cab does too. So does a RAM Club cab. So I guess those are Mustangs too?

being a Brit I don’t have that much knowledge of why a Mustang might or might not be a Mustang but I do get it; there are Minis such as the 1965 Cooper S, then there are the BMW tanks - decent cars maybe (though my parents did not like the one they had at all) but they’re not Minis
