[QUOTE="Softballer77, post: 14203657, member: 151898"] To each their own. My point stands, but I respect your opinions. Overall, it will depend on how many people feel how you do, or how I do. And that will be the tell tale on whether it was a good decision to put a 4 cylinder in a mustang once again... ...however, history doesn't paint a very good picture. To say my GT500 wouldn't exist if not for 4 and 6 cylinder Mustangs...well you may have just made Carroll Shelby turn over in his grave as every Shelby owner would argue that one with you. I have owned 4 cylinders, they had their place in my life. I have seen many a 4 cylinders out run a lot of V8s. But to me (again), it's not why most Mustang owners buy a Mustang. You look at the 87-93 Foxes, and you tell me who had more fun with them...the 4 cylinder crowd? Or ALLLL those Flowmaster equipped V8s. I'm not running to my nearest Ford dealer for a "hot little 4 cylinder". And my "need for efficiency" was meaning auto companies having to fall under stricter fuel economies, etc. I knew exactly what I meant, as I'm the one who said it. If they truly need another car that gets 30 mpg so they can have more that don't, then they can sell Escorts again. So, with that being said...have fun with your 4 cylinder Mustang. If I ever bought one, (and I just may again some day) it will not be in a Mustang, I can guarantee you that. [/QUOTE]
