Let's start over......
I would burn the money up pretty quickly. Driving about 30,000 miles a year and that thing gets about 6 mpg on premium. Plus, it would need an additive to substitute for lead or the valves would burn up.

I understand what you are saying but does that little engine not work harder(more rpms, etc) to produce that power?
This is not really relevant, but back in the late 80s, I had a friend with an 87 Grand National. I had a 1954 Ford F100 with a 351 Clev 4V, 4.88 gears and nitrous. We would race almost every weekend for 1/4 mile. From the standstill, that Buick would take me off the line so far that you would think there was no way I could ever catch him in a 1/4, but about 2/3 down the strip, I would blow his stuff in the weeds and pull away. He never beat me. That thing had tremendous low end torque but ran out of engine about 2/3 down the track. I'm wondering if the EcoBoost is similar or if it is completely different.

I have a friend with one too... and his dad had to detune it a bit for him so he wouldn't get into trouble
He's got a few mods on that bad boy. It used to be his dad's back in the day and his dad and he are both huge into modded cars. I haven't had a ride in it yet, but for a V6, it sounds mean

I hate the shoulder seatbelts built into the seats, they are uncomfortable, and way unsafe for anybody 200lb+
