Hence why the internet melted down when they announced they were making one before pulling the plug. Even people in the USA were envious.
Tesla have shown car companies how to launch crazy out there vehicles. Just look at the Cyber Truck and how many deposits were placed. That is on some ridiculous idea that wasn't even fully nutted out yet.
Ford already have the Body, Trans and Motors and just have to engineer the final details. Way less work than what Tesla have to do to make their promise.
Survey 1000 people and ask them what motor you would associate with the name Ranger Raptor and I bet V8 would be the majority.
