I believe this is what we are talking about here. I dunno anything about the AWD, but an AWD cougar or contour would be sw33t. Too bad we can't get the AWD Mondeo for anything less than the X-type. And Ford/Jaguar in all of their brilliance makes a drag engine for the S-type but screws it up by giving it a crappy auto tranny. :rolleyes:
Ford doesn't deserve to continue if their stupidity continues to compare to that which they assume the American market has.
And I would already own a Vortec if it was proven to be a reliable piece of machinery.
