I am still surprised that in the era of EBIT, profit margins, and 10% margin that the US car companies can still make cars like this. Big cheers to Ford for carrying the torch!

Tick, tock.

It isn't just the automobile industry, take a look around... Are we gonna party like it's 2007 or 1929? ...Or worse?
The only thing I know for sure is that nothing lasts forever. :drunk:

In the last 2 weeks I've seen a Bentley SUV and that new Lambo SUV. This week I've seen the Mercedes G500 4x4 'squared' ($240k).......and then I saw the Brabus version.... I don't want to look up the price of one of those, lol.

I've put over 2 years into this program. All the stuff you guys are reading is toned down and homogenized. This thing truly is a beast.

We must work at the same place or do similar jobs... I love watching these crazy numbers everyone puts out and knowing the truth lol
 
One of my customers traded in a built ‘15 6sp manual Mustang for an ‘18 ZL1 with a 10sp auto which he quickly put a bigger blower and tune on. He couldn’t be happier with the performance of that 10 sp so I’m sure a DCT would be a hoot.
 
Is this thing really going to have a dial shifter and be 4300 lbs? Seems like it’s a bit behind the Demon/RedEye considering all the time Ford has made us wait, and all the hype they’ve put out about it.
 
I went for a ride in one, cars a beast, very fast. If you pull both paddles in it goes to neutral so the driver can rev the motor. The whole package is amazing.
 
I am shocked they put the dial shifter in there. My wife has one of those in her Edge and it drives me crazy. It seems like an odd place to save a couple bucks on a supercar.
