Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C7 Forum - View Single Post - An UNFAVORABLE review for the 2011 Mustang V6

Just to clarify my earlier posts. I am not comparing the Mustang to the Edge and the Explorer. I know that would be foolish. I was using the example of the Edge and Explorer to compare engine designs and torque characteristics.

Also, the Edge and base V6 Mustang have very similar gearing, and the exact same 2.73 rear end (the only way they could get to a 31 MPG highway rating), which means Ford has a sports car that is biased toward efficiency, not driving pleasure.
