[QUOTE="Ashton, post: 1342675, member: 21933"] This may happen, buts it really going to cost a lot more money. The power train upgrades alone to handle 700+ hp will have to diesel like in strength. Adding a lot of weight. The truck power train and frame would have to completely redesign to handle that motor reliability. That’s a whole other supply chain issue for a very limited run. Plus the mustang sits 6” off the ground, with big stickey tires that won’t last 20k if driven hard. That kind of power in a 5K truck would be crazy to even keep the tires hooked up. In all but the best road conditions I can break my tires loose. Car and truck sales are really slowing down now days, and by 2020-21 are going to be even worse. I know it will be a high profit truck but they have to sell a lot of them just to get back R&D. With a starting sticker of at least 90k, not sure how that would it going down much longer. [/QUOTE]
