Looks like this has been in the news for awhile, but I haven't seen it discussed on here. It looks like Ford is going twin turbo.

DanaI don't think your CTS will qualify as "Cash for Clunkers"

Knew somebody would like it. All wheel drive so the car shouldn't spin, but with that high of a trap speed I'm guessing it has some turbo lag on the bottom end and it's making the real power up on the top end.

I would like to see the 60' times.

I thought about a Flex with EcoBoost until I saw the 45k build price...

Terry invoice is 39,394. for the Lincoln and it has 1,000. rebate!

I would not offer 38,394 unless you want it!

I need a wagon or SUV to haul dogs and gear. I did a build and price Flex EcoBoost AWD Limited and it came to 44,545. I expect with rebates and discounts it would be about 36K. I am a little shy about getting into another payment though. I am just trying to think of vehicles to replace the F250 since the trailer is gone. I don't need it now.

Ah gotcha! The thing thatcaught myeye was 13.9 quarter but capable of 25 on the highway!!!
I bet it would not take you long to figure out how to get it down to about 12.9 in the quarter. :tu:
