[QUOTE="RaptorRnr, post: 1499276, member: 41633"] My guess is Ford will take the same approach they did with the Mustang GT500 vs. the Hellcat/Demon. While the GT500 may not match the Dodge equivalents by the numbers, it is a better all around car for many things. That makes it interesting to think what they'll do. If the TRX does have 700hp they'll need to boost things quite a bit. Taking the Ecoboost to 660hp or more, like the Ford GT, is probably a stretch. Therefore, they'll need to massage one of the V8s to get 725hp. I got a good laugh when they upped the 6.7L to 1,050 lb.ft.tq. to keep the competition at bay. I actually like the idea of independent suspension (according to the rumors) but I do wonder if that will impact towing capacity. I tow and enjoy the various destinations with a camper trailer while disconnecting for the trails. [/QUOTE]
