thefatcobra Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Great numbers, but I was hoping for the 6.2 to be a little higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordmantpw Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 Great numbers, but I was hoping for the 6.2 to be a little higher. I expected at least a bump of HP for the 6.2L as well...I was thinking maybe 400/440 or so. The PS is plenty powerful, though I thought they would gone a bit higher. Honestly, I'd rather they stuck with 440/860 and grabbed an extra MPG or so instead of bumping torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefatcobra Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Maybe Ford can bring back the old 4.9L inline 6 and ecoboost it! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
