Explorer buyers put up the kind of money easily. Look at their higher trim level prices.
The reason they went with the Mustang brand here is to "macho" up the vehicle. Which most Ford buyers wouldn't otherwise touch.
Electric Crossover = hippie weak bullshit.
Electric Mustang Mach = Manly strong fast.
You think I'm joking.
- alphabettsy 7y agoThe Explorer is quite a bit larger and seats 7 passengers. This is like the size of an Escape, maybe the Edge. Kinda agree on your other points though even if I don’t love the Mustang branding.
- nickpeterson 7y agoDo people really pay that much for explorers? I kind of always assumed that was the sticker and a mixture of incentives and family discounts factored heavily. It's kind of like when people buy a Dodge or Chrysler, I just assume they get some sort of crazy deal because otherwise what's the point?
- wil421 7y agoHave you ever heard of the Dodge Hellcats? They have a following and old muscle car fans would be swayed by a Mustang badge. They make a $100k Grand Cherokee Trackhawk that’s double the price of my Trailhawk. German cars are nice but there’s no way I’m paying that much for parts and labor on top of the sticker. Not to mention they are making them much harder to work on. Remove the intake manifold to change the plugs or coil, why?
- saturdaysaint 7y agoLeaving it at "Explorer buyers" understates it. It's almost impossible to buy an Expedition, which sells well, under $50,000. F-series trucks are the most widely owned vehicles by millionaires and cost in the range of a well-optioned Tesla.
- kingnothing 7y agoF-series trucks are also the best selling vehicle in America.
