So if you are coming up behind a Mustang at a stop light, do you look left or right or straight up?

Excuse me? Anyway, hearing about these problems with the Ecoboost is making me think really hard about the cars I'm looking at; do I want the more-fun Focus ST, or the Civic Si that I know will be more reliable and worth more in the long run?

For personal vehicles I'm sure the ecoturd is cool.

I'm relaying results from our field trucks, which are subjected to some of the worst driving conditions and abuse in the world.

I'm not worried about what number it will crack, I'm only concerned with getting to the end of the 1/4 before the person I'm racing.

When I race the truck in the OP it will be just like racing your truck too so you will see what I was trying to tell you.

I beat on my cars pretty aggressively, and I want to make sure that in 3-5 years when it has 50k+ miles on it that it isn't shitting itself in the service department.

Have fun. Must be exhilarating to put a couple grand into something that will get to 100mph in 14 seconds.
