LOL
"my brother" is the sucker not me.
i tried and tried to get him to steer towards a chevy and he just will not do it.
i did tell him though,that when the 4.6 motor doesnt hold up and he gets tired of the 4.6 we would put him in a "old 283" and he would be more impressed,and he would never buy another FORD.

ford's mod motors have no power unless you force feed them. esp in a heavy truck. they do good in a light vehicle but so do 4cyls.

My first car was a 71' Torino. It was a lot of fun when i was young! I'm not a fan of the new motors and there only getting worse imo!
