Ford always waits to see what Chevy and Ford will do eh?
That's not really true. Ford brought the GT500 out in 2005 when the Camaro was still dead and gone. They pretty consistently updated it after the Camaro returned as well.
2010-New Body Style and refined interior, power up to 540 HP.
2011-New all aluminum 5.4SC making 550 HP while being 100lbs lighter, improved fuel economy resulting in the removal of the GG tax.
2013-5.8LSC making 662 HP. This was started before the ZL1 came out when it was clear the Camaro was getting the LSA, resulting in Ford completely upstaging the ZL1 within 4 months of the reveal.
Dodge has actually been the one who waits until everyone else has shown their hand and then drops a nuke..aka the Hellcat for 2015 and then the Demon.
