Auto News: Whats going on
I like to talk about cars, and I didnt see a lot of this, if any of it, posted here.
first off, Ford ups the ante again with 2012 Boss 302.
440hp 380ftlbs 5.0, and a special race-ready version will be available. Will sit between GT and GT500.
click pic for more info.
2011 Jeep Wrangler
Wrangler gets body colored roof pannels, and a huge revamp inside the car.
Pickuptruck.com did a HD comparo with all the new super-trucks.
Ford wins the 3/4 ton-gas engine race
Chevrolet wins 3/4 ton-diesel
GMC wins 1 ton-diesel

Al, you're a sad excuse for a Fbody owner, how DARE you post up anything but Fbody/GM ball licking....how DARE you post up something from Ford on a Fbody site. /sarcasm 
That Wrangler interior looks great! It's a shame...it's still.....a Wrangler....

Mustang looks uglier than usual, but seems like fun to drive.
Wrangler isn't supposed to be nice.

Mustang is ugly.
Saw a Tesla Roadster yesterday, all electric. Looked pretty sharp, very small.

God forbid you tell the Fordies on GMI that. They start reporting posts, posting pics of old Boss's, and even compared it to the Porsche GT2 RS.
The car is bad ass, and exactly what the Z28 should be, not what it will be.

mustang looks like its confused with a riced out civic paint job..
wrangler looks nice... but not for a wrangler, it supposed to be rugged and covered in plastic and rubber inside, the bosy color roof looks weird as well

glad to see a thread like this I like reading the stuff you post Al. Mustang looks ok i guess but I love the power being made from a 302.

I've seen pictures of the new Boss in different color schemes and it looks much better than the one in the pic Al posted.

Why does the mustang have a retro 80s lifted truck paint scheme?
If the red was white or grey it would look much better I think.

that's not just any Boss 302, thats the Lagnua Seca edition mustang....why they chose the red/black combo is beyond me, since Laguna's colors are neon blue/orange ??

Yes, the Leguna Seca edition is supposed to be a "race-ready" version...I don' think it is street legal. Here's some pics of the standard 302.
