Ford is really stepping their line back up. Did you see the new escorts? They actually look nice. ---

My mom’s car just died on the way to work today because the accelerator pedal sensor went bad. Wouldnt have been an issue if it had a throttle cable. Ive got the drive by wire shit too. The first I looked under the hood I was like WTF? when I didnt see any cables. ---

wow they finally took their head out of their asses and realized they need to go with bigger cubes to play with GM’s line up. GM is still getting it done tho with big cubes, and a single cam, push rod design tho! let the bashing begin! ---

Its kinda odd that this motor is just going into trucks. Is there really a point in having a 400+ hp 1/2 ton 4x4 pickup? Id like to put into something different like a new Crown Vic or an old Fairmont. ---

Mine’s got 300 hp and really doesnt feel like it, maybe because of the size and weight of the truck. It cant even beat a stock Beretta. It does tow and haul pretty good but its a dog off the line for some reason, even with 3.55 gears.
