I saw that the other day. I'll keep mine. I like somethings on that car...but not enough to go buy one.

I like the 5.4L w/ the blower though....but man, that car has to be front heavey.

Yeah, I'm with Chuck on this, I like our style better. Have any of you read about the 07 Explorer Sport Trac, it's suppose to come with a 03/04 cobra motor :eek:

Yeah, that's gonna be a bad mofo! I've seen the mules around here and they don't look quite as sweet as the prototype pics. Lets hope it's somewhat affordable.

I doubt it'll be affordable. I bet it'll be north of $40,000.

Thats the problem... They think if they build something it will sell like hotcakes, but then they throw a big pricetag on it and nobody buys it. Quit being greedy already geez :rolleyes:

In the article it mentions $35,000.00

I doubt it'll be sell at $35,000. You know dealers are gonna mark em up. The same stuff happened w/ the t-bird. They come out with is and charge a lot of $$. At first everyone HAS to have one cause it's new. Know they can't give them away. At least they shoulda made the t-bird somewhat quick!

That's the problem. They can't really competitively price them without losing a ton of money. They lost a ton with those Cobra R motors.. I think they ended up in the red after selling them all. The dealerships are the ones that charge the dollar amount.

In all reality, $35 would be a bargain. AWD, Brembo's, a nice interior, 6-spd heavy duty automatic, a blown 32V DOHC, and a warranty in an SUV. Out of my price range, but if those were $20k, you know how many people would have them...

They'll start prices high to begin with. Demand should be greater than supply for the first few months and those people able to pay over MSRP will be the ones getting the trucks first. Once demand dwindles a bit, they drop prices and get as much as possible. Start off at 36K, get 10 people.. $34K, 15... etc
