What is the status now for ordering a Bullitt? Is this another dealer monkey dance with allotments, etc. or are they available as a regular production option?
I grew up in a Ford dealers family...hardcore Ford guy most of my life. Had and enjoyed a Falcon Sprint (65),Cobra Jet (68), Boss 302 ('69), numerous GTs, a SHO, F-150, F-250, and probably some others I can't recall right now. But I have to ask, what the hell has happened to Ford's business...

I have a 2011 SHO with about 45K miles and have been really impressed with the fact that it is very smooth and very powerful for pushing a 4400 lb car down the road. DI, as previously stated, allows for the potential of more compression ratio because the risk of detonation is mitigated by the...
My Unique Cobra basically uses a Mustang II front A arm assembly and it works beautifully on a 2300# car. But the original II had atrocious build quality (like most other American cars and the time), it ploughed something awful in the corners and the brakes were diabolical. I had a 84 GT which...
How many performance oriented folks do you know who bought one? It was a Pinto in disguise. Don't hook the word hate on me. It was a perfect example of what you get when you address a different market, and the buyers were a different market. I don't hate it but on the other hand, as a...
