Default The 5.0 V8 is Coming Back

The 5.0 V8 is Coming Back

Ford has plans to have a 5.0L V8 in 2010. With gas prices and emission controls swirling around, this is good news.

wait how is that good news? im all for a big V8 but a 5.0L V8 isnt good news for gas milage. shouldnt they downsize the liter of the engine keep the V8 or somthing. im just fu**ing sick of gas prices, im gettin around 130 miles to my 12 gallon tank. at 3.90 a gallon i dont know how much longer ill be driving my mustang
speaking of that...check out my classifieds add.

but still dont get me wrong, gotta love the 5.0L tho.

It is well known that the Ford Falcon and the Mustang have a long relationship, what with the Falcon being the basis of the first Mustangs.
The 60's Falcon has and had nothing to do with the Aussie car now using the Falcon name.

The suggested relationship between the Aussie Falcon and the Falcon to Mustang link is incorrect.

While I do like the 5.0, I'm not sure this is the time to bring it back.
