Now that's a different thing.

N/A 5.4L 32-valve V8 w/cast iron block and aluminum heads making 390+ hp??? Not bad... Not bad AT ALL!!!

I guess Blue Oval needs to make a note of that over here, too! As well as GM, of course...

As you see it (including that 5.4 DOHC 390 horse V8) is about $28,000US (http://www.autoweb.com.au/id_FORFPVP...3/newcars.html)

If you rather have the sedan version, it's only about $26,000US. (http://www.autoweb.com.au/id_FORFALR...Z/newcars.html)

Now you can cry.
