It keeps showing up in my netflix feed. I figured it was probably bad.

42 minutes in, 42 minutes left ... interesting in that you get to see the modern-day designers up against a deadline. I want to see them explain why last gen didn’t have independent rear suspension, but I suspect that won’t be addressed.

Halfway in ... they’re explaining why Mustang was so difficult in ‘64 given that the Edsel had flopped a few years earlier.

I watched this last week, and thanks to work being work, failed to post about it.

As someone in the product design and development business, I was really impressed with it. They didn’t over-glamorize things, and told a lot of the stories about the boring fights we have to fight daily. I thought it was great.

Saw it last week. Short answer: I thought it was great.

I agree - lots of people making tiny decisions after someone makes a giant one. The Mustang was always going to live, it just had to arise from the primordial ooze (again) and take its current form. Without a solid beam rear axle, we pray.

I watched it on Netflix and liked it although they lied when they said every part was new the 5.0 is a carryover they could have tweaked it but I doubt every part of the engine
