Default Why not the 3.5 ?
The Ford edge has a 265 horse v6 engine.

Why isn't that engine in our V6 Mustangs?

No worries Jasoon start saving your pennies and get unattatched to your current stang... In 2011 the V6 will be rockin 315hp and the GT 400. 2012 brings the rebirth of the Boss!!!!!!!!

You figured it out!

And probably because the engineers were too lazy to fit a new engine in it.

to lazy or not...I'm glad to see a 315 hp v6 and a 400 hp gt in a new mustang coming soon. Sure you can get a shelby, but I can't afford that. So the new 2011 will be nice because they will be available to the poor people like me.

Actually the Mayans and Incas have been working in conjunction in Messico to bring all kind of goodies to us, including mean engines etc...
They will start a new calendar right after that.

lol i'm not sure if this is a good thing or not but as soon as I saw you replied to this thread I knew it had to be some kind of response to my comment rather than a genuine answer to the question. Makes sense though, 2013 A.D. is obviously Year 1 P.B.E (Post Boss Era)

315hp V6 mustangs, 400hp GTs, mayan calanders - all of these have one thing in common, they are all myths...
