[QUOTE="harrisb, post: 1045718, member: 20880"] What other vehicles is ford going to offer a TTV8 in? No way it hits the standard F150 and also no way it's in a standard mustang. That leaves low production number Raptor's, Shelby 350's and the Ford GT. The development costs to setup for a platform like this with so low numbers would be insane, the cost of the truck would skyrocket. The only option would be for them to hand build them like dodge did with the viper 8.3 and 8.4 due to the low production numbers. Considering that is a hugely unprofitable business for dodge while the Raptor is hugely profitable I for some reason have a difficult time believing that Ford and their shareholders like losing money where it is already coming in.
