ROFLMAO you STILL don't get it. Just how thick are you! Some people can give others a bit of good humoured stick without the recipient having a blub. Gunhand is such a person that can take a bit of fun. He isn't a thin skinned nancy boy with a grudge, like you are. Go do your snivelling elsewhere if you can't hack it - perhaps your sewing circle.

Well the subject was boring, who cares if Ford put a 4cyl in a Falcon.

Not me, I never complain to the moderators, why would I do anything that would stop the fun I am having tormenting someone as dumb and paranoid as you TRH.
If you have offended someone enough for them to complain you have only yourself to blame. But at least blame the correct person, it is your actions that brought the wrath of the moderators.
So keep to to rules or slink back into your closet.

Think they will have trouble moving them here as there will be only the XT model in the line up
Think it's more of a stop gap measure until the Falcon platform is retired,personally the Falcon would have been better optioned with a diesel but I guess Ford politics had other thoughts

Yes, I will certainly take one for a drive when they come out, just curious how they will work. Smaller boosted motors are where we are all heading.

The ecoboost has about (roughly) 10% less torque than the current I6. I very much doubt Joe Schmoe could tell the difference.
I just don't think many people have got their heads around the power delivery of these small high output units yet.
Whether or not it has the longevity of the I6 is another matter, and only time will tell that. I'm curious enough to drive one before I comment either way on it. Seems people here are writing it off simply based on gut feel rather than the actual numbers though.

If only they could make it SOUND like a 6 cyl!

"After several hundred kilometres in the lowest-spec EcoBoost XT on these roads - and a couple of hours playing on a country racetrack - the car was an absolute surprise. I'd take the new four-pot over the six in a second." Word from the motoring jorno who's actually driven one.

One thing for certain is that Holden are going to be watching this with interest.Having taken many years to figure out that nobody wants Vectras and Epicas and the other boring appliances they've tried to sell over the last thirty years will we see the rebirth of the Torana, complete with RWD! Or a hot 4cyl option for the Commodore! Makes you think.

You wont see a 4cyl Commy again, they learnt their lesion years ago. I wonder if the 4cyl Falcoons will be built in China!

So, you don't think a company can't try again! I do.

The techno is there now and Fords effort will be better than Holdens way back when, so you may well by right, we will see.
