Sergio Rodriguez is a car guy’s car guy. He’s owned a lot of V-8s over the years, so he knows a thing or two about performance.
But now, in search of even better 0-60 times and smoother overall driving, the military contractor, currently based in St. Marys, GA, has made the switch to electric vehicles.
Post your comments or questions about Sergio’s Mach-E GT Performance here.
He’s previously owned two Tesla Model Xs. But Sergio has moved on from Tesla, purchasing both a Grabber Blue Ford Mustang Mach-E First Edition Premium AWD Extended Range and a Cyber Orange GT Performance, which comes standard with Ford’s 88kWh usable capacity extended range battery and AWD.

Sergio let me take out his GT-P for a spin and conversation with him, including a few 0-60 mph runs. His insights are unique as someone who has owned a number of high performing gasoline Mustangs over the years along with high end models from Ford’s biggest EV competitor.
Sergio talks about all of it – the strength and weaknesses of the Mach-E – comparing it to both to traditional ICE Mustangs and Teslas. Whether you want to known how Ford’s Blue Cruise stacks up to Tesla’s Auto Pilot, or how a Mustang Cobra Terminator compares to the GT-P, you’ll learn it in this video.
He’s also had track and cross-country time behind the wheels of his Mach-Es, going from San Diego to St. Marys in his Mach-E Premium and shows his Mach-Es at different events, such as the recent JEA Drive Electric Car Show in Jacksonville, FL.
The Ford fan also has a reservation in for a Ford F-150 Lightning, which he expects to take delivery of soon. He was among the Ford owners invited to Dearborn, MI to watch the official launch of the Lightning.
Sergio has been featured on a number of media outlets, including The Detroit Free Press, where you can read about his cross country trip or watch this Free Press video:
