KITT inexplicably switches both make AND model

Now, I’m the last person to suggest that the current crop of Chevrolets is capable of approaching the bad-ass look and feel of an 80s Trans Am, but damn! The producers of the new Knight Rider television series have switched over to Chevy’s pony car rival…a Shelby Ford Mustang.
The result, as you can see, is kind of lame. Apparently, Knight Rider is staying true to its roots. It’s going to be an hour-long TV commercial for young dudes still alarmingly unsure of their sexuality.
Lame. Just like why did Bumblebee become a fucking mustang? A NEW mustang at that??? Stupid.
