    It’s the carcinization of automobiles. Tall station wagons are simply the most practical shape for cars to be.

    Frankly, the thing that bothers me about the Mustang Mach E isn’t the shape, but rather the fact that they desecrated the name of what’s supposed to be a low-slung coupe.

      The shape bothers me a lot, but this bothers me more. They could have just called it the Bronco. Or the Fairlane.

      But if cars are all going to look like that in the future I guess I’m never buying a car again.

      As much as I hate it, having a 50 year old blue collar welder with 2 Chevy trucks parked out front come over and get excited about “The new Mustang” made me realize how perfect that decision was. People can complain about it all they want, but I don’t think it would have been anywhere close to being as successful otherwise.

      That…that right there.
