My dealer told me that Ford is having trouble getting the car to pass EPA tests

The press launch isn't until late May or June, so we won't see any tests until then.

Bummer. Why can't the EPA just admit that they are not qualified to judge cars that are over 600 HP. They need to learn to stick to their limitations. Erik

There's a money trail here...just need to find it and follow it to see who is blocking it.

And while the EPA does a lot of good, that doesnt mean everything they do is good and therefore...they CAN suck it.
