"The next generation of the NEW 5.4 engine will be modified to accept a wet sump (oil pan) and the engine WILL be used in passenger car applications. A really HOT full size Ford sedan anyone?"

HA!! Not Ford. These are the same guys who ever since cleaning house against the GM F-cars with their 5.0 stang in the very early '90's have been getting their clock cleaned ever since. Yep, the Marauder was "supposed" to be the bomb but was just barely suited to have been Fords competitor to the Impala SS, a car long dead by the time the Marauder. I'd still put my money on the SS in a race. The Marauder is by far better looking though.
If Ford ever offered something again will real balls in the full size line it will probably just barely be quicker and just might handle about as well as the GM's from 10 years past. <YAWN>
