[QUOTE="_Lariat, post: 16080621, member: 193599"] Blowing CAC boots is the bane of my existence on test drives. Lol, I carry an 11mm socket and wrench with me at all times now. While I cant argue the ever present use of the 4v across all engine platforms in the f series, (less the 6.2) and its success for the most part, the power they generate is mostly in the higher range of RPM. Now that's also a given being they have a smaller displacement to boot. Now being a smaller displacement, is a 4v per cylinder head needed? Look at what GM has done with the LS platform. No, I highly doubt ford will up and do away with the OHC/DOHC designs they have came up with I'm saddened the 6.2 was a short lived powerplant, I honestly think it could have been a stout platform for generations to come, but time stands still for no man, and emissions are crunching down. I think a 7+ liter engine is a bold move, however, I doubt it will be a bad one. No, manufacturers dont look at what fleets will be spending, but they look at what theyll be buying. I have seen a good bit of local fleets steering away from the newer fords, and going to Dodge vehicles. Why? I couldnt say, I'm not versed well enough, and not going to spew out false/incorrect statements. I honestly think the lost production efficiency alone would be enough to steer ford away from the tall deck coyote. To have castings made for the other parts would also be enough of a deterrent in my opinion as well. It may not be hard or expensive, but looking at what it may do to the sales of the 5.0, or 3.5 Eco is enough to deter them.
