Re: Ford needs to use the Mustang Platform...
I have nothing against a well crafted crossover or SUV. I feel the new Explorer will be amazing and thank god its on a modern RWD platform. What I don't like are poorly developed cars turned into mushy crossovers with $5000 tacked onto the price tag. Hence this would be most of the crossovers out there that flood the streets. The ones that bottom out on steep angles and look like they would tremble in fear at a curvy road or gravel road. Ford EcoSport is a sorry excuse for an entry level replacement of the Focus or Fiesta both of which I could have gotten an ST. The USA is being completely robbed of an amazing experience with even the new Fiesta ST that Europe gets. Again the Eco Sport crossover is a load of dead weight. Literally its clumsy, heavy, cramped, ugly, and 100% hard plastic inside. It also cost as much as a Fiesta ST would.
