Question: 105 HP? What was Ford thinking?

Answer: CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) which is about 27.5 mpg.

For every V-8 Mustang, Crown Vic and SUV Ford sells with relatively low gas mileage numbers, they need to sell a ton of 4 and 6 cylinder vehicles with high mpg numbers to hit the federal 'average' mpg requirements imposed on them. So far, so good.
