What will happen when they launch a new chassis and motor and GM moves the lt1 to 416ci. A stroker zl1 is mind boggling.

These folks need a real life. Maybe lack of friends and/or family does this to you. Sad. I picture a teenager to be honest.

He is very good at parroting information on the internet or press releases just well enough to sound like he knows what he is talking about...............to an audience that really knows nothing about engineering an automobile and putting it into production. If you are a super fanboy and have no experience in product development..................he can sound almost factual.
However, I have that experience and education and to me he just sounds like a fanboy that wants to believe his view of the world is true and create a basis of semi facts and fabrications that make it seem plausible. I've never seen him post his credentials. I have. But who knows, he could be the Mustang Chief Engineer for all I know. Not sure why they can't accept the Mustang is a great coupe and if you move up to the GT350 it's also an awesome performance car. They have nothing to be worried about. Just happens the Camaro will run all over a GT regardless of weight conspiracies. And I'm pretty sure you are grasping at straws if you think every major magazine and internet review has been bought and paid for. There should be at least one that would show the Mustang winning something other than trunk space and rear seat room.

A guy has weighed a base 1SS and it comes exactly what Chevy said it would. Just thought I would let you get your popcorn ready! |

Whats funny, is that the last time I was looking at that forum, is that Pill was claiming that he was trying to find an ATS-V owner that had one that came in UNDER 3,800 pounds just for GM's sake. He said he had two or three friends/former co-workers/whatever that had them (sure he does...cause there are lots of people that have bought an ATS-V). He is saying he wants to do this, b/c if the weight difference between the ATS-V and the SS is that much of a difference, that it must be due to differences in the body in white, and that if so, it would be such a huge achievement in structure weight reduction, the likes of which have never been seen before...yes....those are basically his words.

Now, his insider info and superior calculations for the Camaro weight can't possibly be wrong....There must be some new heretofore unheard of metallurgic technology that his Team didn't inform him about....That can be the only real explanation!.... What a shame...all those years of speculating, fact-finding, insider info, superior engineering ability, etc., etc., all for naught....and gone with the wind. |

Just took a few minutes to peruse the Mustang6 site and geesh...you guys are right, the Pill is just full of all kinds and colors of BS...lol. I had an ongoing debate with him back in 2011 about the better car Mustang or Camaro and his obnoxiousness hasn't changed a bit. Ronald Reagan would say this about the Pill:
“It isn't so much that the Pill is ignorant. It's just that he knows so many things that aren't so.”
