Ok...let's substitute 'high powered yellow Mustang' for SUV....
make more sense?

I'm getting over 21mpg in the Mustang. Not bad. It's not really high
powered
though, only a 4.6L.

I thought your Mustang was a GT?

It is. The GT has a 4.6L V-8, with an advertised 300hp. I don't do a
lot
of drag
racing though. (Although, I *know* it'll do 110mph in 3rd gear -
without
redlining.) I've only done that once. That was enough.

Fuel Injected? I didn't know you could push the Ford standard 4.6 L
to 300 hp without altering something major. Supposedly this is Ford's
standard engine package across the product line.

Interesting.

And you can push it to 500 hp

Thanks for the URL's, Jim. All that good news fluff makes me feel better
about
spending the bucks on my toy!

"All decisions are the result of binary thinking."

The fluff did it's job! Not a bad word to say about the Mustang. I am
sure
you would agree that there are absolutely no down sides to the car to
report
to would be buyers. Heck, it is all about "looking good and going
fast".......sort of like a certain *review* on a SeaRay posted here.
;-)


Well, I have had a new transmission and a new gas tank put in the thing.
But
that's minor, and the dealer gave me no squawk about it.

Failure of those *minor parts* (LOL) do not belong in a fluff review. It
is all about "going fast and looking good" to at least on person here when
doing a review.


With my GT, it *is* all about going fast and looking good!
