Commercials are on TV too. It shows a guy driving around with various co-pilots. He talks about how important the co-pilot's job is. Looks like it has some different wheels. Pretty sharp.

OK, since nobody else said it, "Why is the VR6 only putting out 200HP now, when the smaller Duratec had 200HP back in '99?"
