Ford-150 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 is it alive or dead? I'm confused and does it have a future with the new management in Ford? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickF1011 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I'm hopeful, but I won't hold my breath until I see one being offloaded from a delivery truck at the local dealer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford-150 Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 ok but i remember hearing, like a year ago, that ford stop the SVT program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickF1011 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 ok but i remember hearing, like a year ago, that ford stop the SVT program The only thing that really stopped was the use of SVT as a marketing program. SVT is still alive as an organization behind the scenes doing special powetrain/suspension development. GT500/KR still have those "Powered by SVT" valve covers.
