Cjafpv Member 110 Member For: 10y 8m 20d Posted 21/12/15 11:14 AM Author Share Posted 21/12/15 11:14 AM Yea the srt is a monster for such a heavy car really goes with that 6.4 and on the freeway it's fuel economy is actually great like really great but yea around town sucks it's just terrible but what can you expect from the weight and cubes put together haha. Only has 3000ks on it reliability wise gonna have to wait and see only time will tell.

Have you heard the new gt350's 8500rpm 5.0? It literally makes me want one Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88904-own-an-f6-but-got-to-drive-a-gt-tonight-my-opinion/page/3/#findComment-1578122 Share on other sites More sharing options...
