Calling all Dodge and Chevy Muscle Car fans: Will you be converting to the new Mustang?

Will a single foot option lead to a mass migration to the pony stable?

The trinity of muscle cars in America has two of its mainstays leaving the scene in the very near future. The 2024 Camaro is the last of its generation, and the Dodge Charger and Challenger leave even sooner. With that in mind, will its release turn your tie-dye Mopar fans into Mustang owners?

We’ve known for some time that the Charger and Challenger were on their way out. In mid-2022, CEO Tim Kuniskis made it clear that the 2023 models would be the last. Over the past few months we have seen edition after edition of the “Last Call” to commemorate the end of an era.

The Charger 2024 will be all-electric and there are rumors that the Challenger will also return with only electrons at its heart. However, Kuniskis says Dodge could drop an internal combustion engine into this EV platform if it ever wanted to. Still, that potential feels extremely low.

What’s more, Chevrolet is saying goodbye to the sixth-generation Camaro after 2024. It has no clear, public plans for a seventh generation, so whether or not we get an electric Camaro or none at all remains to be seen. We know the name will return at some point, but if it’s as a crossover, Chevy can keep it.

After the 2024 model year, it will leave only Ford in the American internal combustion muscle car game. The seventh generation Mustang so far seems to be popular on the internet. The Dark Horse trim is certainly getting a lot of attention thanks to its beefy engine and aggressive styling.

However, will the lack of options be enough for those of you lifelong Dodge and Chevy fans to buy a Ford Mustang? Regardless of your answer, let us know your reasoning in the comments section below.
