I believe that was a 2007 GT500, not a GT350.

The base engine is the 3.0L EcoBoost. The 3.5L EB is going away in the unibody platform utilities and cars. I also have to double-check, but I believe in base trim it makes 400hp/400ft*lbs and then with the hybrid option, it bumps it to a combined 450hp/650ft*lbs.

Nice work! but if you’re going body color there, then I think you would also need to continue the stripes.

So like a Lincoln MKC Taillamp flipped upside down?

Fun fact, anyone trying to use the Taurus SHO’s Yamaha V6 in a RWD project car searches high and low for a manual Aerostar because the bellhousing on them bolts right up to the SHO engine without any adapter plate nonsense. You can also use the trans, but if you wanna make more power, you can use it with a T5 IIRC.

At least you could get a manual Milan with the base 4-cyl!

Man you’re making me really miss my 2012 GT that I had bought new. You’re also making me feel better that I sold it in 2016 for $26k with 34k miles on it before values really dropped off! (I sold it to buy a Focus RS BTW, which has been a blast, but I still miss the 5.0 once in a while).

Finally a follow up to the 1998 Toyota GT-One Road Car!

That’s the first thing I noticed too!! Gaaa!

It would scare the crap out of me to ride in that car without someone at the controls.

You’re right! I had already forgotten it changed LOL

The Edge is not only larger than the Escape, but much more refined. That’s the big thing you’re paying for when you step up to the CD platform from the C (Focus) platform the Escape is based off of. It’s nice for those that don’t need the 3 row size or added cost of the Explorer.

We have 93 all over the place here in Michigan. In fact Costco only sells 87 and 93.

MKZ is the midsized sedan. Are you thinking of the MKX? (Lincoln Edge)

Unfortunately if you’re not a fleet customer, it’s only available on Lariat, King Ranch and Platinum trims. I’m not happy about that either.

Man, I miss when Fast & Furious movies were about cars...

I love that Chris Pratt is driving a Raptor!

That looks like a 2nd gen Escape dude.

Or you just opt for automatic climate control like I have in my 2016 Focus RS and my 1995 Taurus SHO. All I have to do is hit “Auto” and I never have that problem. I don’t think I’ll ever buy a car with manual climate controls again.
