We might not be missing much by not getting the coyote

Sounds like the new 2018+ Coyote sucks.

Guess we'll have to go with the 7.3 Godzilla then instead. Shucks.

there are some issues some people have seen with it. namely due to the DI/PI setup. But I'm still looking forward to getting a 5.0 next year.

honestly I’d 100% prefer the Godzilla over a coyote. The coyote isn’t that much better than the Ecoboosts, if not worse in a lot of ways.

The Godzilla is definitely better in a lot of ways.

Small crafty turbo engines are good.

Big dumb pushrod engines are good.

Everything in between is hit-or-miss.

Idk, I haven’t had any issues with my 2018 Coyote nearly 20k miles in ‍

I have a bad history with the coyote engine gen 2 and 3 I have already blown 2 of them up... probably best I don’t get a coyote anymore...

As someone who wanted a Coyote powered Mustang, what happened exactly?

Judging from the "Vehicle(s): 2018 mustang gt 865rwhp" I'm gonna guess too much boooost?

I have 20k miles on my 18 gt without any issues. This motor likes to rev.

I have 120k on my 1st gen coyote (2011) zero issues

I was looking into getting a mustang for a few months until I remembered/realized most of the people that own them (GT's at least) are douchebags, but one thing I did take away is that the 3.7 v6 is probably the most durable, reliable motor of the group. The 2015-2017 5.0 was pretty solid from what I had researched, but there were people starting to have problems with the 2018 (although, I thought the 2019 was ironed out)

Wtf? lol
