Get the fardoo mug.The 2nd generation of the Mustang, built between 1974-1978. Designed by Lee Iacocca and based on the the subcompact Ford Pinto platform. It came in basic coupe form, hatchback, or the up scale "Ghia" which had a landau vinyl roof treatment. Engines offered were either a I4 or V6 engine, but a small-block V8 became an option in '75.
During the gas crisis, it sold well, mainly due to the demand of small cars. But this generation is known to Mustang fans as one of the least popular. Mainly due to cheap wimpy Pinto type styling and the lack of a good performace engine. The base coupe and Ghia models were boring looking. And Hatchback models tried to hard to look sporty, what with the "Stallion" or "Cobra" trim. They offered paint jobs with strips going down the hood, a blacked out grill, and lots of plastic body moldings. But in the end the car just looked tacky and overdone, and was all show and no go. Sales declined after '75 and a newer more popular Mustang design would appear in 1979.

One of the worst cars I've ever seen was a rusty 1976 Ford Mustang II "Ghia", painted in white but sporting a ghastly bright red landau vinyl roof, with a red interior.

Get the foad mug.Used to be the best American truck manufacturer until they redesigned their trucks to fall apart 0.1 Miles after the Warranty expires.
Ford had made great engines before they sold out, such engines include the 300 In-Line 6, 4.2L V6, 4.6 Triton, and the legendary 4-53T Detroit Diesel.
Nowadays Fords are just another laughing stock like Chevrolet, Dodge, and General Motors. However they still make great suspension systems and are great candidates to install a 3-53T or 4-53T Detroit Diesel engine for up to 50 MPG and nearly 1,000,000 Mile Life.
Now hear are some declassified documents that reveals the true meaning of F.O.R.D!
Found On Road Dead - Modern day Square Body Chevy driver after passing a broken down Ford on the side of the road.
Fix Or Repair Daily - Former Jewish Ford Employees that escaped Capital Punishment after exposing Fords intentional engine failures.
Fucker Only Runs Downhill - Former Ford Owner that switched to Toyota.
Failure Of Research & Development- Ford Designer that defected to the Toyota Factory in Kentucky.
Factory Ordered Road Disaster - Survivor of a Ford Ranger Collision.
Fucked On Race Day - Undercover Dodge Employee after observing Fords failure on the Racetrack.
Fucking Out Right Dangerous - Another Ford Ranger Collision Survivor.
Fuck Our Ride Died - Ford RV owner stranded in Death Valley.
Forever Outclassed Rain Deer - Some Drunk at 7-11.

Get the Ford mug.The Ford Motor Company is currently the second largest carmaker on Earth. "FoMoCo" (one of its nicknames) includes the Ford, Mercury, Lincoln, Volvo, Jaguar, Land Rover and Aston Martin brands, which cover massive parts of the car market in the US and abroad. It is widely believed that Ford's American brands, namely Ford, Mercury and Lincoln, are suffering due to the added responsibilities of the new additions to the Ford family, as well as controversies harming important models, like the older version of the Ford Explorer SUV and Ford Focus compact. Ford is criticized especially for its handling of the historical and ailing Lincoln brand, which is no longer a top-tier luxury brand while its rival Cadillac is supported more heavily by General Motors, along with the increasingly irrelevant Mercury brand, which sells the most obvious twins of Ford models besides Lincoln.

Get the Ford mug.A car made by the British division of the Ford Motor Company, built between 1938-1959 (not including the period of World War 2). It was basically a four door version of the sit up and beg Ford Popular, which like its two-door counterpart, is popular on the hot rod circuit since the 1960's. It was lightweight, rear wheel drive and mechanically simple.
The Second incarnation was the 100E, which bore a resemblance to scaled down 1955 Chevrolet. A more advanced design that used a monocoque construction and a McPherson Strut front suspension. However, it still used the outdated flathead (sidevalve) engine that was in production until the early 1960's. It was replaced by the Ford Anglia 105E in 1959.
