[QUOTE="2011SuperCrew, post: 975493, member: 3795"] I was thinking of you scaled-up from the current V6 hp estimates to a V8 based on cylinder count you'd end up with way more power (450hp*8/6=600hp). Also, the V6 has plenty of power for just cruising. It only takes about 100hp to cruise at 80mph. You can get that from a V6 but without the parasitic losses of the extra 2 cylinders. I think we all could agree that Ford _could_ have built a TTV8. They've certainly got the skills! I think they just don't have anywhere else to use it... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
