Default The 2018 Ford Mustang Kills The V6 But Gets Magnetic Ride

Yes, the face of the 2018 Ford Mustang looks awfully sad. Is it sad because it no longer comes with a V6 engine option? Who can say. But there is good news: a new 10-speed automatic gearbox, new colors, and best of all, a magnetic ride suspension.

Love my v-6.

Shame they want to force the Ecoboost on everyone.

They have to because of the CAFE standards set to go into effect in 2025, brought to you by, our gubment.

It's either bring their fleet up closer to the standards and use the credits for over-achieving models where they can to help the under achieving models or, do away with the under achieving models altogether.

I'd rather have a 4 or 6 cylinder ecoboost with as much or more power than a V8 and still be able to get the car I want (with a compromise on the engine) vs seeing something like the Mustang or F-150 going bye-bye because it becomes a liability.

The Ecoboost outsold the V8 and v6 in the US and the V8 outsold the Ecoboost and V6 in Europe. Funny how that worked out
