So, agian, why would Ford jump to this gas-guzzling 7.3L that makes less power than the 5.0L? the appeal of the redline being 1500rpm lower? Not giving themselves a chance to pass pedestrian safety regs?

Drive a Coyote drive a LT1 exact reason why it makes sense for something off road. RPMs aren't the desire its torque and slow speed control. Now will it happen in the Bronco, I doubt it, but of engines available it actually makes sense for the application.
Some people just need to appreciate a nice TPI 350 for torque every now and then :-)
