I hope one day someone like ford will have ended up making every possible metric size of engine. 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 ....4.8 4.9 5.0 5.1 etc

To be honest this is probably the last sizes of motors we’re going to get for a long time as in ever. With everything going hybrid then electric. I don’t see new sizes coming soon

My 90s Bronco has a 5.0L V8 that puts out... 190 HP (30 years ago) and gets 12 MPG.

The 2.3L puts out what, 290 HP and may get 20+ MPG, and with a turbo does good at any altitude?

Let's move on from the sound, and look at the numbers. If the engine is reliable and powerful, I'm all in on a four cylinder.

You realize in the past 2-3 decades V8s have significantly improved, if you have to compare a 90s V8 to a 2020 4 cylinder I think it speaks volumes to why the 4 cylinder is a bad choice.

My 4 door 4x4 work truck with the 5.3L gets 25-26 HWY all day long.
The new Ford 7.3L with 4.30 rear end seems to be averaging 15MPG, that’s daily driver mileage for most people, which was unheard of for a gas HD truck even 5 years ago.
There’s a huge market for an open top V8 off-road SUV, Ford is making a mistake ignoring this.

Let’s leave the turbos for the ecoweenies in Europe and make a SUV with raw American power.

It can’t meet the crash regulations. It will be available aftermarket no doubt. So save your $$ if you must have a V8
