Legacy carmakers still do things by model year. Their processes are waterfall in a world that's gone agile. As far as how well their metal box protects you when you're sitting in it and you get into a crash, all of their models rate very high. There's are fit and finish issues, you're absolutely right, but the dinosaurs aren't evolving with the times. We live in a software driven world now, and their old processes haven't been torn down and built from scratch to meet that reality. As a consumer, the new F150 Lightning does have a lot of cool features, so there's hope for them yet, plus Ford CEO Jim Farley's been driving around a Xiaomi SU7 from China. We'll see if he can light some fires under some asses and manage to turn the Titanic in time.
