Figured this should go in here: http://www.motortrend.com/news/ford-announces-2018-f-150-expedition-power-figures/ No figures for the diesel engine yet.

Since Guard is gone (leaving a vacancy for another shade of green) and we've already seen photo evidence that Ford was at least thinking about it, I'd say a Bullitt model is more likely.

Wow, it's pretty awesome how close they've remained when adjusted for inflation. That makes my 2016 GT barely $1000 more than a 2003 GT even though the 2016 has more of literally everything.

Anyone else see it yet? Shit was ****ing brutal.

It sounds worse than it is. The 8-speed auto in those cars has very short gearing (1st is 4.71!). It's actually shorter overall than a manual which has a 3.70 rear end.

That is impressive. My bolt-on S550 traps the same but my best ET is only a 12.9. I have the same 235s and they're terrible but that auto seems to make up for them.

That torque curve is beautiful

I hope the hybrid powertrain is an option for the V8s. I'm imagining a Coyote motor that comes with the GT350 (or similar) manifold from the get-go and revs to 7500+ RPM but has huge low-end torque from the electric motors. Nice fat powerband. That + 10-speed auto = big acceleration. Or just...

I had almost no credit history at the time so I was paying a 14% interest rate on a 4 year term through Navy Fed. So pretty bad lol. I've come a long way now thankfully

Enlisted at 22 and did what all boots must do, I bought a Mustang shortly after I finished basic training. I'm 27 and on my 5th Mustang now.

Coming back? We ARE in the golden years. Cars are so powerful nowadays that automakers are having to take other measures to make them faster because they're putting down more power than can be actually used in most situations. Some of them are even decent on gas in spite of that. We've never had...

^I love them both but I bet the results would've been closer had it been auto vs auto or manual vs manual. edit: beat me to it.

Airman who's been on Army bases his whole career. What is this "lightning within 5" tomfoolery? :D
