His second video as an owner is devoted to whining about the doors.

That's it. The "incredibly annoying" doors.

Fail! Karl, take the car back.

I too am surprised by the seat comments. I think the seats LOOK very uncomfortable. But Ford did a great job of capturing the 1960s design without hurting comfort. The surface area of the seats still provides sufficient and even support. As someone who drove my GT from Los Angeles to Denver and back, without stopping for more than gas both directions, I never had an issue. Same for my recent non-stop from Los Angeles to SLC and back for the NFGT press launch. Car is very comfortable on the open road for long distances.

I will miss that among many other things.

I did 1000 miles in one day in my 2005 FGT (DFW to Scottdale). On the way to Rally 3 in Las Vegas. Very comfortable.

He's entertaining for sure but I truly don't understand why people who are supposed to be knowledgeable car guys don't "get" the doors. Congrats on the sale and NGT Karl, I look forward to seeing your build.

I'm really, really looking forward to the post-vloggers era.

I realize the doors are sometimes hard to live with but when I learned they were the doors because of the Le Mans race I like them a lot!
