Do the 2.3L and 2.7L engines have identical bolt patterns? News of the manual transmission being restricted to the smaller engine makes me wonder if a swap is possible without a custom bell housing.

Hell, color me educated. I had no idea they weren't the same!

It's not true. If a DOHC V6 fits between the frame rails, it's wide enough for a V8. If an inline 4 fits, it's long enough for a V8. We know there's a turbo-four option, so if there's a V6 option then the Coyote will fit. If the Coyote won't fit due to frame rail issues, then there won't be a...

Put a new car payment into an index fund every month starting now. In five years, buy the new car with cash. You'll still have a few grand in the index fund to start on your next new car purchase. You'll also have a good safety net in case you lose your job, or be in a good position if a great...

Ford: Since so many of our enthusiasts have requested it, we are now offering a V-8 option in the Bronco!* *FWD model only. Automatic transmission only. Only available in bright pink with polka-dotted interior. Not legal for sale or use in the state of California.

Hell, this. Exactly. (Well, maybe some production bumpers and a bit of quality control on the front of the truck bed) I want a truck that fits in my garage. With a V8. With a stick shift. With 4WD. If I could give Ford $40-50K and walk out with the keys to a brand new truck identical to the one...

I've said it before and I'll say it again - Give me a truck that fits in my gorram garage. A "midsize" truck these days is bigger than a full-sized from a decade ago. If the Bronco pickup comes out and is available in a configuration under 200" long, I will likely buy one.

Uhm, that's exactly what I want. A RCSB F150 with a camper shell, stick shift, and 4WD. They haven't made that combination in what, a decade? And if I want it to fit on a trail, I'm looking at about 70" width, so... Two decades? Three? edit: Nope, 60s models were the last time that was...

That right there is exactly what I wanted the last time I went car shopping. If Jeep released that today, I wouldn't be on a Bronco forum right now.

I just described an older F-150 with a camper shell. Basically what a FSB would be.

What I want is a RCSB F-150 with an (optionally) enclosed bed, big engine, manual transmission, and 4WD. Something that I can use as an SUV day-to-day, but convert into a truck whenever I need to use an engine hoist to drop a thousand+ pounds into the "bed" to take to the dump (or home from the...
