I too was pleasantly surprised at the cost of the 2.7L/auto package. It kinda makes the whole X-plan fiasco a wash. I've got 5 builds that are possibilities. I'm really on the fence about 2 door or 4 door Big Bend or Outer Banks.
Another close comparison would be the Edge ST with the first gen 2.7 Eco boost. It was tested 0-60 at 6.1 sec with 3.39:1 final drive and a curb weight of 4477lbs. Of course, the transmission is different also.
As much as I dig the idea of 1000hp, I'm thinking the Hummer is going to be ridiculously expensive. And the Tesla is just too weird and also ridiculously expensive...and I don't want a truck.
just my .02 but I would of bought an electric Bronco in a heartbeat. (My company has free charging stations so I've got a bit of an incentive). If the Bronco thing doesn't happen for any reason, I'll be looking hard at the Mach E.
I don't know why this should be such a big deal considering the boosted engines make huge torque numbers, which I'm guessing is what all the off-roaders want anyway.
I think you could ad Muscle Cars to that list. I know very little about Camaros having owned a couple Mustangs. Chevy does have the Corvette going for them which is huge.
I signed up with MCA and got my X-plan pin all in the same day. I think somebody is saying even though you have an X-plan pin you have to wait 60 days before it becomes active. Am I reading that right?
I got my last car from Wayne Ford and they were pretty decent and have a good service dept. Unfortunately, I've had way more bad experience than good ones buying a new car in my state.
