From a business standpoint I think Ford is probably heading in the better direction when it comes to the future. They are looking at all their customers from each generation and applying it to their products.
I read and heard last year that Ford stopped the development of the Electric Super Duty which makes sense for what those customers do with those trucks. For the other Heavy Duty trucks I think Stellantis will probably do similar to Ford and I don't know what GM is doing with their HD trucks in the future.
The F150 trucks have a lot of choice with a Hybrid TTV6 a TTV6 and they have the V8 trucks for the V8 or bust crowd (V8 is something I don't expect in the next gen though).
The Mustang is something Ford already predicted and will probably be the last in the segment to offer a V8 and I read several articles to where its life expectancy will be determined by sales of the V8 engine.
Toyota I think when they catch up in the BEV world and keeping other options available is probably in a good business standing too. Their new Tundra with the TTV6 and the TTV6 Hybrid is what I expect automakers in the 1500 truck series segment to probably end up doing with the those trucks for customers that tow and Haul which Ford has already been doing. I expect more hybrids out of Toyota before full BEVs though.
This is where I see things going the Camaro no one but GM knows what will happen but probably be the first performance vehicle from the Big three to be all electric if it does continue on.
