Not as lean, not as mean, Still a Marine
| Ford missed the mark on this. They had at their disposal the moniker Model E, but chose to use Mach E for this instead of a sporty E coupe. I feel like they did this for investors that were told by their significant others that they couldn't have a Mustang unless they could carry the kids and grab the groceries on their way home.
I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself. |

Guessing OP's friend has a 'Mustang' of the MachE variety.

| Is it common to refer to a Mustang as a Mustard? If so, why?

I believe it is called autocorrect

| Not sure if it was some phrase used only by the select few "in-the-know" Mustang aficionados like some BMW owners will refer to the 745 as the quarter-to-eight - which is worthy of a future rant.

| Did they have any Grey Poupon? |

My other Sig is a Steyr.
| Also consider that they sold enough of the M-ache to keep the EPA happy. The thought is that this is how the new Mustang still has a 5.0 V8.
