If you like cars, and like Ford's, chances are you like V8's too. This video is a must watch. American made, naturally the doco is heavily US slanted, but then they did invented the V8 afterall.
Something that I find fascinating is how the current Ford CEO, Jim Farley, fully understands the importance of the V8 and its meaning to Ford customers. He spends his spare time on the racetrack racing various V8 Ford's, a true car guy. And those glorious Coyote 5.0 engines, made at the classic Windsor factory.

That red hydrogen V8 ute near the end was pretty special!

Sometimes I wonder about the future, how some like to tell us that everything is cast in stone
and then an unexpected event happens and things change. While I agree that many people in urban areas could benefit form electrification, charging is an issue so hybrids make sense to some, PHEVs and BEVs to others so why not leave the door open to other choices… |
