I haven't been reading the details, but none of us will ever get along if we can't respect each other's FREE WILL CHOICE to CHOOSE whatever Mustang we WANT.

I get it it. Some people don't like that there are 4cyl. ecoboost in Mustangs.

But if people think they are going to change Ford's mind about it by terrorizing the people who buy them, that is wrong.

I only see one person being butt hurt about the topic and in my opinion a moderator that easily butt hurt doesn't need to be a moderator ...

That's not meant to be an insult to anyone that uses the term but just a general statement.

300hp is enough for you. (Settled)
You decided that sound isn't that important. (Settled)
Upgraded EB is good enough. (Settled)


$32k I'm guessing is the price of an EB stang. $37 seems like the right price of a GT. Both overpriced IMO but I don't see a deciding factor from $32k until you hit $40k. Extra $50 or so on your note?
Now as far as spending the extra money you saved on upgrades, what's the point? You've spent a lot of money just to keep up with a stock GT while putting even more stress on your engine which is pretty close to its full potential already. It's breaking point has not even been established yet. Oh yeah, warranty is now void too.

Now the hook. There are great reasons to buy an EB. Fuel economy first. Insurance costs. $5-7k cheaper. All great reasons I guess.

You said yourself that if you bought it to be a competitive weekend racer, you would have bought a GT. So don't try and post race videos of modded or tuned EBs beating GTs. You again SETTLED on the EB because it's not your race car. Although I know many race cars that are daily drivers. The YouTube race vids are just there to sell more performance parts. For suckers. Lol
To Start:

Settled: to agree to or accept something, although it is not exactly what you want.
To use words that are purposefully provocative with negative connotations is a fairly old, lazy and over-used tactic. The fact you're still resorting to that says far more about you then anyone else here.

The fact you still can't get price right is actually amusing and negates any other "fact" you throw out.

And, I said if I wanted to take it every weekend in the 1/4 mile I'd probably buy a GT, but that's because I'm lazy like that. The reality is, if I wanted to win at the strip I wouldn't be buying a '15 GT anyway.

That really sums up your entire "argument' and point as it were.

See, you weren't around for what we were referencing in the posts you quoted about the Boss guys. We had a great time for the most part and everyone took jabs at each other and had fun.

Of course there were exceptions. A small handful of people would get their panties in a bunch and get super defensive over any little thing they saw as a sleight of their superawesomebestcarever Boss and start being an *** and using personal attacks. Some people just can't take a joke, or even an opinion they don't agree with.

IMO (if I'm allowed to post one ) you came off as defensive from your first post in that thread and it only amplified from then on. But everyone takes things differently and if you don't know the other person very well (or at all) it can have a different impact on your perception. Goes both ways.

Nobody terrorized anyone in that thread, it was very tame IMO.
