[QUOTE="andymarkv, post: 16963495, member: 102900"] I thought this was interesting... If a guy can do a 2.3 swap in his garage, it is obviously feasible for Ford to do it (Although I had to chuckle at the "Cranking it for the first time lit up the [URL='https://www.thedrive.com/category/ford-reviews']Ford[/URL]'s dash like a Times Square marquee[I], but resetting the truck's CAN bus cleared all the codes[/I]", I don't think resetting CAN bus anything is as simple as flipping a switch) While more displacement would be good, a manual option is where the real fun would enter the picture IMO. But I can't see a business case being strong enough for that investment. Not to mention, a 2.3/manual Maverick ST would probably cost.....$45-50K? Not sure anyone would want one THAT badly.(Then again...my wife paid $40K for a Focus RS 6 years ago...so maybe?) I keep thinking a manual Maverick ST would make a great replacement for the wifes RS and give her some utility for her horse stuff.
