    As you all probable know, Ford is going to start selling the hybrid Escape soon. While there is no way I'd purchase an SUV, I am glad Ford is jumping on the hybrid band wagon. Now all they have to do is build a vehicle with a hybrid V8 and I can slap that hybrid technology in the stang. :nice:

    Yeah, Yeah I know that's crazy talk but hey have you seen gas prices lately? I think I'm gonna start ridding a bike to school. That would be way cheaper and probable 10 times as dangerous. Ah you can't live forever.

    Does it make me a bad person if I seriously thought about what parts I could "borrow" off my neighbor's 2002 Mustang GT without her noticing? :D

    hmmmmm......I've gotten up-close and personal with the engine bay of NoKitten's '73 Cougar, which is pretty much a Moose-stang by another name. I wonder if you could fit 4.6 (or even a 5.4 :nice: ) in there without too much massaging?


    EDIT: As for the hybrid SUV.....I saw pictures of the "concept Bronco" on one of the other threads..... being an old "Ethyl" guy, I wonder if you could fit a 300c.i. six-in-a-row in there. And how well it would climb :D
