Mustang being left behind

04-28-2001, 05:05 PM

I think what ford is doing (just my opinion) is delay any advancements on the mustang until the new platform. It seems like they are also trying to make every vehicle a LEV no matter how big or small the vehicle (i've seen explorers with LEV stickers in them). Ford wants to put like a 3.9L V8 in the new mustang (blue oval news) as one of the options and a supercharged 3.9L to make up for the loss in displacement....this is all government BS in my opinion. That's probably another reason behind not putting in a torquey engine rather than high revving engines or at least having the option of larger engines.
Space shuttles do more damage to the ozone each pass through than cars have EVER done with NOx emissions, and not to mention factories and processing plants that send out even more crap. I think cars are like 2 or 3 on the list of most harmful to the ozone...but in reality some other very large countries could care less about auto emissions and other emissions. so basically what we're doing is basically trying to do is stop a flood by throwing rocks in one part of a river. Just my biased opinion.

Sorry...i just have strong opinions on this subject and why ford doesn't put a larger engine/supercharger in the 'stang we all love.
