If you’re going to drive one of these, you might as well get an EV
Difficult not impossible.
Exactly what Ford wants.

Exactly and everyone is in the same boat. Seems like they’ve been making progress in the f150s, they’ll figure it out eventually but I’m sure the cost will go waaaaay up

This. Much more difficult endeavor with the S650, but in time the top dogs will figure it out.

Ford only cares about decreasing sales of ICE vehicles. We should revolt and buy the sh*t out of these S650s despite their short comings...by 'we' I mean you all...I won't buy one 
We still don't have widespread tuning available for 2020 F-150 and Ford sells those ~15:1 the rate of V8 Mustangs.

It’s also what the gov wants
Here I am using binary editor to tune mine…sad news for the mustang. We are watching it die before our eyes. Oh well. I’ll keep my old jalopy.
Interesting article and it makes sense…but it still sucks…
Yep!
All global warming believers, consider this: say we all ditch our fire breathers and start driving your "green" EV's... Now we're running on batteries. Our batteries need to be charged. Where will the massive amounts of electricity for all of our batteries come from? Take a guess... A little bit will come from wind farms and the beautiful solar fields that are replacing our forests, and some will come from hydroelectric powerplants. However, a large portion of our "clean energy" comes from another less-mentioned source: Coal. So what are we really gaining? Personally, I don't think our technology is ready for this switch, not to mention our economy, but that's just me.
Government, Government and Government!!! We all can thank them for anything that involves tuning, and considering these vehicles can report back to Ford and just revert the entire ECM back to stock, simply by over the air!!! I myself am leaning toward a older none emission compliant vehicle. Now I may go standalone ECU or big inch Ford with a E-85 or Methanol carburetor with nitrous. Just my thoughts as of now, I will be waiting to see if the house and congress changes hands. My hope is that this strangle hold they have on automobiles loosens up enough to start making headway again.
I sent a group text saying the exact same thing when it first hit the web. I might just go find it and screenshot it. Since, pics or it didn't happen.
