GM already has several gas guzzling performance cars, Ford has none. Even if Ford did have to take a GG tax on a new GT500 at 600+ HP, it would be marginal in the larger realm of things.

As I can count, GM has a GG tax on the ZR1, Z06, CST-V, CTS-V Coupe, CTS-V Sport Wagon and now the ZL1. Each one of those GM has to pay for to the Federal Government.
Gotta' pay to play
