Works better that way. 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. http://www.theautochannel.com/news/2...05/244450.html http://www.fast-autos.net/ford/05fordmustang.html And you can push it to 500 hp http://www.tuningnews.net/news/04110...g-projects.php Thanks for the URL's, Jim. All that good news fluff makes me feel better about spending the bucks on my toy! -- John H "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. -- John H "All decisions are the result of binary thinking." 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. |
