Wife asked me why I bought it, I told her to read the first letter of each line.

...but it's a 3,532 pound 4 cylinder?
Seriously, I have nothing against ecoboost, but why would they put it in such a fucking heavy chassis?

No idea how they managed to make it retard ham planet heavy when the STI is 3400 and the Evo is around 3550. But the 2.3 still is a great buy with the 3.55 gears.

>>15393662
I think it's because it's a dimensionally large vehicle.

Why do American car companies make their coupes as big as SUVs? It's a fuckin coupe! It's suppose to be compact and sporty! Why do they all weigh nearly 2 tons and take up more space than a utility vehicle?!
>>
>>15393691
Omfg... this is priceless.
The Ecoboost Mustang also weighs the same (or more) as these things!
>2016 Ecoboost Mustang: 3,532lbs
>2016 Escape: 3,502 to 3,645 lbs
>2016 CRV: 3,358 to 3,624 lbs
>2016 Rav4: 3,455 to 3,630 lbs
Yup. Totally convinced to never buy an ecoboost. Hope you enjoy your 4-cylinder boat anchor, OP.
>>
>>15393619
I've wondered about this too.
The numbers certainly seem ok for the car's weight, but making that much power and moving around that much weight with a stock 4cyl (even a large-ish one at that) seems a bit sketchy.
But I guess it's the big question with all the Ecoboost engines... how well will they hold up over time compared to their N/A counterparts?

I hate Fords as much as the next shitposter, but to be fair those aren't SUVs. They're glorified tall hatchbacks.
>>
>>15393741
To be fair, they also have seating for 5 with cargo, ample foot and head room, and all-wheel-drive.

Inb4 "At least they circled the problem"

The same reason people are bragging about things Ford did in the 60's.
Because it's true.

Why doesn't ford put the ecoboost v6 in the mustang?
The current gen Mustang is so much better than everything else in the price range.
Miatas and toyobaru do not compare
Mustang is just a better set up car. It feels better to drive
>>
>>15394856
it'd compete too much with the V8
>>
>>15394856
Their v6 ecoboost makes less power than their na v8.
