Motortrend Takes A Ride in the 2015 2.3 Mustang


Recommended Posts

The car 2.3 EB Mustang by Motortrend is clearly set up for track work, with/without a tune should be a weapon in its own right.

on the right track, it should be a great momentum car that scares the daylights out of much fancier competition with way more horsepower...

 

A car like that appeals to a different type of buyer and that's the point here because Ford wants to grow sales, not simply replace the v6.

You have a good point there but isnt the 3.7 and the endangered list?

Not at all...the 3.7 works good as a base engine for the F-150, or as the top engine in the MKZ or as a base engine for the upcoming MKS. Then you can use it in the MKX, Edge and Explorer. I don't see it going anyway time soon..the 3.5/3.7L still have lots of life in them

The 3.7L will be done in the F150 after the '14 MY as the F150 is going to the 'new' 3.5L.

Wow. I am getting 22 on a 2003 Taurus with the 3.0 Duratec, how does the newer 3.0 Duratec get less in the Fusion?

 

 

I got 22 in my PowerStroke diesel once. Cruising at 55 MPH. After resetting my MPG gauge after I was already up to speed.

 

Perhaps I wasn't clear. I get 22 mpg average. I get about 26 traveling at 70-75 highway.
