Anyone have any insight/opinions on whether Ford will (or should) respond to the new 240 HP Nissan's?? They're putting the 4L V-6 SOHC to shame if they actually produce the rated power, and I really like the SOHC. Heck, that beats the SOHC 4.6L V-8!!
You would think that given Ford's 11 years of production experience with smog legal supercharged engines, we'd see a quick response to this differential.
I can't see more power than what the SOHC has is needed for the current Explorer, but it sounds like the new one is going to be a bit of a lead butt. More torque is a big help for that problem!
