Nah, like I said, the Mustang EV is fine, but like you said, it shouldn't have been called a Mustang. I suggested the Galaxy name. I think with a different name I would have been fine with it. The Mustang has had a few identity crises over the years, from Pinto look in the 70s to the boxy look in the 90s, to this pseudo-retro look from 2005... but it has never been a mom-mobile for a soccer team. No, an SUV/crossover isn't a minivan, but it's close. And I liked Ford's minivan, the Aerostar. I can't speak to its mechanical capabilities, but I liked the look of it. The one whose front is a straight ramp from the top of the grille to the roof. A lot of people didn't like them. I thought they were neat (looking). Even wanted one, at one point. Figured I'd take out the seats and turn the back into a living/hangout area. Some people actually did that, mostly with full size vans. I only thought about it.
