(More)A Ford official vehemently denied a report proclaiming the death of the V8 engine in the Mustang and F-150 models after 2017.
The article from Horsepower Kings quoted an unnamed Ford representative as stating the following:
We spoke to Ford Global Powertrain Technology Communications Manager, Paul Seredynski, who told us that there's "No basis of truth in that report"."Ford is definitely phasing out the V8 motor altogether. CAFE and EPA are working very hard discreetly to make sure of that. There is quite a bit going on at Ford that the public is in the dark about. The impression that I am getting is that Ford wants to continue it’s V8 program, but things have (rather recently) taken a new direction, presumably from CAFE/EPA pressure in mid to late 2013."
We also asked him a few more questions about Ford's engine plans and choices...
