    Great review of a thinking man's car. I love the high powered Stangs but, to me, this one is suitable for over 90% of regular folks. Hats off to Ford for even making a mustang for everyday people.

    I just bought 2017 ecoboost Mustang preamam package used 74,000 miles .
    And it's really fast 6 speed with paddle shifters .
    I like the interior much better than the one in this video ...
    I don't like the big computer screen it looks like an office desk .
    Lol.
    The 2015 16 17 18 is much nicer Interior.
    And great gas mileage. I drove 200 miles. Got 32 mpg highway.
    And lots of pickup speed . And again paddle shifters .

    I looked at a special ordered 24 Ecoboost Performance Package Fully Loaded. It was 46k which is a doable price. Looked at the same option Gt it was pushing 64k. That’s a little bit out of range for a reasonable payment. I have owned 17 Mustangs and currently own a supercharged one now. I have owned S550 Ecoboost and a 5.0. From a bone stock platform a Ecoboost pretty quick in the daily driver department. GT really comes to life above 4K. The Ecoboost can hang decently with the GT on the low end.

    Just put in a build order for a 2024 Yellow Fastback Premium with 201A, Performance package, performance exhaust and the magneride suspension. Can't wait for it to come in (likely around July 4). Considered the GT, but that was going to jack the price up more (and then would need nearly all the same options to make it interesting) so another $10K, worse gas mileage, and higher insurance rates. Yes you can get the GT for like $5K more, but that's STRIPPED down. You then have to pay to get the 401A package (GT version of 201A), so that jacks it back up.

    Bought a 2022 Ecoboost with 6200 Miles 5 months ago after my daily driver became unreliable (Jaguar) and no one could diagnose the problem. I've had one Camaro and three Firebirds over the years and truthfully can say I really like this car. I was very surprised by the power and comfort. Not to mention I'm getting 26 mpg. Only issue I have is that in the five months I've had the car, it's been recalled twice, but it does look nice sitting next to my 79 Corvette.

    I really wish that they have put the 2.7 L similar to a tuned dual injection, and the 10 speed transmission with a longitudinal mounting. I would love it. The 2.7 L is built for a truck, hp/ tq for miles 10 speed trans . I d love to see it go into the EcoStang when, if? they stop making the Edge ST. If it had the truck fuel injection it would be perfect, but it would kick with the F150 longitudinal engine 10 speed Mustang as a base, 350 hp, 400 ft lbs . That would be neat. Our 2022 Edge ST is a great runner.

    In my country Indonesia, Mustang GT got taxed so hard because of its large engine displacement.
    It's about 2x more expensive to buy and the annual road tax is 3x more expensive than Ecoboost at US$4,000 annually.
    So... is Mustang GT really worth the money in my country? Or Ecoboost is a great alternative?

      So... we depends on grey importer getting these Mustangs from UK mostly.

      Nah it's still a mustang for looking like one. Just not as needlessly fuel hungry. It's smarter to have a car with more mile range and fuel economy. Besides, it still looks better than 90% cars and will still get you ahead of others. I can spend the extra 15000-20000$ on something else. Like making my mustang look better than the best mustang model so that you guys can stop trying to feel good about yourselves through your car. Like there are better cars out there anyway. So why you trying so hard? Are you gonna be the biggest loser when you lose to a better car? No. Same for us. Honestly I dont even care about the sound. There is something really dumb about caring about it. Just imagine if mustang 4 ecoboost looked exactly like the v8 model. Who will care the most whether it is GT or not? 😏 Just trolls who wanna put others down. It's a good car for its price and for daily driving. And it's better than most cars so it's a great buy.

One might almost never call it a mustang if the drivetrain were placed in a whole different frame and housing. Imagine this drive train in a classic lady bug body volkswagon. You'd just see it as a super bug🤣. The exterior design is what largely makes it a mustang. Plus it drives fast enough to be cooler than 90% of cars. It even has a drift brake and paddle shifters… unlike 90% of cars on the road.So it deserves respect. Especially with extra packages and customizations
