Ford done good. I'm really quite interested in the possibilities of the next gen if they go Ecoboost V6, lighter, IRS, etc.

He made it to the first ACH cruise of his year with his ACR Neon Srt-4. He wants to show but his wife works that day and he takes care of his kid. Hopefully he can make it out soon.

The ecoboost is a pretty damn goos system as well but I'd rather drive a V8 when it comes to muscle cars and not a v6.

I agree. But if they go a little lighter and smaller and IRS it's really more of a sports car at that point and a turbo 6 is fine for that.

Everything indicates it's going to be lighter. Whether that means 3400lbs, or 3500lbs, I don't know, but it's going to be lighter.

3400lbs + IRS + Boss 444hp 5.0 = win

Chevy can build IRS that handles considerably more power, so Ford ought to be able to.
