Blue II

Well Mr JP Gludge first thing you need to understand is the 6.2 is a volume engine for the Super Duty (more applications coming). F-150 is limited. Most customers will opt for the N/A 3.7. That is the volume engine for the F-150. Now "apples to apples" a 6.2 DOHC will stomp a mud hole in the 5.0.

While we will never see the likes of the 477 & 534 again, it's likely we will see a Hurricane HD. There will be a need for a HD gas DI turbocharged 7.0 engine. You'll likely see alternative fuel versions as well.

FoA is working on an OZ platform and tophat. Would you like a 2.5 EB with 8 spd?

1.6 EB, 1.3 EB 3 cyl, DI, TIVCT. Plasma ignition. :shades:

The Mustang has broad appeal. What it can't fit will be picked up by the Focus and Fiesta. There won't be that much difference in the 2014. It will not be so retro, however you will never mistake it from anything other than a Mustang. There will be plenty for everyone, boosted 4 & 6 and DI Coyote's. IRS for the soft set and Cobra Jet drag cars with 9" SRA's. You have quite a narrow view on what Ford actually tests for the market.

The Genesis is roughly the same size as the current Mustang. It's the same width 73", longer wheelbase 111" vs 107" for the Mustang. The overhangs are slightly less. Overall length for the Genesis is 182", Mustang is 188". So, does anyone want a smaller Mustang or just some more slippery skin to make it appear smaller?

What are your thoughts on the Genesis Coupe?

You're getting warm. A few more posts and you'll have it cracked.

Global design for a Global platform. RHD Pony cars and plenty more. Pony up for a Pro Drive JP.

There ya go. Leave the boosted 4 bangers for the Focus and Fiesta.

So............you like your cool aid rice flavored. Honda will never have a 110 year old racing heritage like Ford. We have won on every venue on planet earth. Get over it.

The product you see today as lame as it is goes back to the 1970's when Ford pulled out of all organized racing. Up until then GM was not competitive. After Ford left GM came in and did their tribute $$$$ to the Frances empire and that's how it's been ever since. If anyone believes that Jimmy Johnson is a true 5 time champion they must still believe that wrestling is real. Ford will not do the tribute thing and that's why they get stuck with a severe disadvantage when they had to race up until recently an engine that dated to the 1960's. The Yota, Dodge and GM engine are all replicas of a 351. If Farley had a better alternative to market Ford Racing he would jump at it in a Heartbeat. Sorry for the pun. We're stuck with it. An awfull lot of fans think it is real.

Mustang wins everytime when equal power plants are compared, 3.7, 3.5 EB, and Coyote. Comparing a FG Falcon to an 05 4.6 Mustang doesn't make sense.

Livonia has a new transmission Lion going in. Cute little Puma too.
