It deserves to stick around because it's a hell of a damn engine. It's going to go down as one of the greatest but that's another opinion of mine.
Just think if you could put this engine in a 60s Mustang. Without all the modern controls it would be a handful for the average driver.

Nah, they wouldn't dare raise the price.

I like the idea of a torque-fill system for the Coyote but I don't like the idea of adding more weight to the car.

Everything we add to the car adds weight. If Ford is not for it we are.

This is about the predators successor not the base coyote. I also love the whole EV kick in the video its just stupid they are trying to indirectly convince you ev are desired. lol also the epa has been forced to remove or newter most of their bs.

Looks like the 5.0 is going to be around longer than believed. Look at all the innovations which have gone into this engine over the years.
Omg, could only listen for the first few seconds, the narrator is so monotone and lame.

I liked it up to the mandatory start/stop system. That just wears out your starter and causes oil starvation issues.

STOP/START........I have to wonder if there are people out there that really use this one feature that will save us from evil carbon. I'm afraid I know the answer and they are the ones that don't go when the light turns G R E E N, use turn signals when half way through the turn when someone won't let me change lanes, drive the speed limit to make me stand out, we all know the rest of it...

The big red button or the frequently discussed always stay started malfunction function? Yes, many a thread

I'd rather not have known that. My "turn it off" button always works......so far......both of them.

As Mr Hyde points out, this is no Coyote by any means and wouldn't be relevant to a garden variety V8 Mustang by a long shot. I personally think the video teeters on being clickbait.

Given that it’s already possible to get a Dark Horse to nudge 90K, where does anyone think an 800 hp FI specialty Mustang would come in?

This is an opinion based piece with a few quotes. No different than you or me. I wouldn’t put any weight into this video.

Just something about the cadence
