Erm...

Allison is a division of General Motors, and the tranny had been used in Chevy and GMC medium duty trucks.

 

Actually I was thinking of the one thats somethign like the 4w70 something (alpha-numerically). I don't remember the specific model, but it sounded a lot like that one, which I remembered because thats what was in my Mustang. It was in a 2000 F250, and it needed to be replaced in the first year. The mechanic who I talked to at the dealer was a good friend and told me that one (and a few others) were always having problems.

 

All this High HP is going to cause HUGE accidents talk is just STUPID!

People with 120hp civics have caused enough accidents to cause there insurance to skyrocket. The high price tag will cause most inexperienced drivers to not go for it i think. How many people buy mustangs? Kids and enthusists. Kids cant afford 36k for a car...unless mommy and daddy buy them and even that, most would prob have a benze for that price. 36K is going to keep it high enough to keep it out of the kids hands and only for the man with the full time job. How manny accidents occur with v8 cars? Prob less then fwd v6 or v4. Sure you can have a 500 hp car, that will do 0-60 in 4 seconds but will that really cause a person to cause a spectactular accident? Most likely no. How many recks have you seen on the news involveing even 300hp cars? I havent seen ONE yet. More mini vans and civics then anything. The fact that it has 500 hp is not going to make it more prone to accident. The driver, who feels the need to do a smoke show and hit some kid is. Our cars dont handle that well, and i can imagine that the new stang wont handle any better.

 

Regardless of ones feelings on high HP cars, how could any US citizen be for more Gov. control. We have less freedom every day in this country. (esp. if you live in comunist Cali.) Pretty soon people will be saying... In China the streets are paved with gold.

 

Well, its definetly WAYYYYYYYYY more than V4 cars. I think there were none last year with V4 cars!

 

or I-7 cars.

So how many cylinders are in a rotary anyways...

 

I don't think anyone would be for this except for the leftist ex-hippie set. By talking about it I am not advocating it, I'm just making everyone aware that this is quite possible. Pretty Orwellian if you ask me.

 

9

 

Um, no.... NONE

They have chambers and a 2 rotor has six and a 3 rotor has 9. but 2 chambers fire every rotation...

 

i know. That was referred to as a "joke"
