: Next R is 06', could be quicker if new model doesn't take off like they want. I'd like to see an R with the new model intro, but they will prolly wait till it gets it's rubber firmly planted on the ground.
I'll post what I torture out of the geeks at greenfield village as I find them wandering alone and blubbering mindlessly outloud to themselves "its too much hp, not safe! It's too much hp,not safe!"

I can say with 1,000,000% certainty, that Ford will never name it that.:bash:
