Equal to whichever car has the better tire (and wheel) package would be entirely sufficient. Just getting the playing field closer to level is all.

They COULD have. But why SHOULD they?
Because it's a waste of print and a waste of an enthusiast's time to read about something where the results should have been as apparent as the outcome between this year's LII Eagles and your local college team. The situation could have been completely reversed with the Mustang expected to come out on top by a similar margin (and doing so) - and I'd feel exactly the same about MT's decision.

I ask this again, why should everyone have to wait for Ford to get their shit together?
We all have that question. Ford may well have that as a problem, at least among the more hardcore enthusiasts.

And how many different version do they need before they can compete with the Camaro. The PP2 is already 2 trim levels up from the GT while the 1LE is 1 trim level up from the SS.
Because one giant step > one little one?
