My friend just sent me a link to this and I think it's pretty interesting, especially with the glowing parts (it's so pwetty). Supposedly the new F150 ecoboost is the best truck in its class and the video seems very convincing. What do you think?

Really the govt is what killed it for good or at least in-defiantly and really pushed the volt though as thats where the agenda goes not to useful powerful and efficient vehicle that WOULD FUCKING SELL LIKE NUDES of Hanna Montana in a middle school. Oh not to mention you could do something with it.Originally posted by FusionIf a car is the epitome of freedom, than an electric car is house arrest with your wife titty fucking your next door neighbor.

So sad that GM and Cummins came up with mid-displacement diesels perfect for 1/2 ton trucks and SUV's that will never be. Just think of a truck that could tow as much as my 5.9 and still get close to 30 mpg...
Word in the diesel mags I read to is OEM's were reluctant to release diesel 1/2 ton's as well as they would hurt the 3/4 and 1 ton sales which they profit more on.
I know for sure I'd buy one of the 1/2 ton diesels if it ever came out...

I love every single new ford vehicle. They are making huge changes for the better and the ecoboost is by far the best motor you can have in a 1500. New 5.0 mustangs competing with m3s around the track. And I can't wait to see the 4cyl ecoboosts in focuses. Although I would like to see it more in the fiesta. Ford is by far the best american car manufacturer.

I bought her a nice Tahoe insteadLast edited by mrsleeve; 05-18-2011, 06:07 PM.Originally posted by FusionIf a car is the epitome of freedom, than an electric car is house arrest with your wife titty fucking your next door neighbor.

Same 1/4 mile time. Within 1 second around the track.
We head to the race track with professional driver Randy Pobst to see if Ford's reborn Mustang GT can keep up with Bavaria's finest, the BMW M3 Coupe.Read th...
On the costs of the Fords...wow that's pricey. Assuming that all of the engineering and quality going into the new cars is really costing them though. They've had to leap forward.Originally posted by z31maniacI just hate everyone.
