I Won't Buy Any Vehicle That is CONNECTED to The Internet!

ICE Only!

But That is Just Me!

Kevin,
Most all cars today are in the internet.

There are EV cars that must be charged every day.

There are ICE cars that must use gas in the tank as needed. Thanks Ford.:

I am good with my 2019 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 FPC is not good to some folks.
It's still fast with 526 HP,


My 2019 Ford Mustang was $60K. The much slower 2022 Dark Horse is $75K today (or more).

I'm Still Satisfied With 500Hp out of My 07 GT-500! 34k on Her Lots of Life Left in Her! It Was Right at 50K Out The Door! All This Old Man Needs in a Newer Vehicle. Our 02 F150 Harley Davidson Supercharged is Still Doing Daily Duty With 114K and Going Strong! Seems To Me She Was About 38K.

Love Your Car! Saw an R - Model on Mecum the Other Day Sell and Thought About You!

I Also Have Plenty of Vintage Iron That We Can Play With in California! 1975 Prior! Got Em From 1964-1974!

I'm Done With Anything Newer! Like I Said Thats Just Me!

Don't Own a Cell Phone Let Alone a Smart Phone & My Home Internet is Hardwired. That's Not Completely Disconnected But as Good As I Can Get Unless I Wanna Give Up TMS & Ebay!

I'm a Dinosaur & Will Hold Out as Long as I Can!

Kevin,
I agree except my 2019 GT 350 is much faster. Just saying so just away from these special FPC cars,




It's a lightweight track supercar.

Well We At Least Both Share The Badge of Honor With Our Cars Having a $1300.00 Gas Guzzler Tax!

All things Considered 17 Years Later and 500Hp is Still Very Respectable!

There is Always The California Legal FRPP / Whipple Upgrade! If One Is Still Available Anyway!
We aRe Bad Puddy Tats!

Until Lee Posts Anyway!

Check your facts, the 2021 Mach 1 edged out the GT350 R on the track. The Dark Horse is better and faster than the Mach 1, to call the Dark Horse “much slower” would be incorrect. Also in my opinion the new 2024’s are butt ugly. I’d take a GT350 or Mach 1 over any 2024 any day.

I can't see myself buying a full EV. It just can't work where I live and have to drive. If I lived in a big city I could probably see it being an option. I don't ever plan on living in a city.

Couldn't have worded it any better myself...

As long as I remain on this earth, I will never own any vehicle with an all electric motor... As far as this dinosaur is concerned, nothing can replace the connection I have with my ICE powered "06" GT over any EV whatsoever, period!

No EV for us either. Not a chance unless gas is outlawed by the libtards. Let's hope that never happens. For all you ICE folks, you know who to vote for this November.

^^^ I'd be wining and dining BIG OIL to the White House every month and thanking them for all the $1.50 per gallon gasoline and diesel they would be providing with all the EV credits now directed to their companies instead. You watch how fast inflation shrinks when gas/diesel is cheap! The greenies can cry all night long.
