Agreed, nice engine, but it is a Ford and I think I'd be more comfortable waiting to here initial reports on reliability before buying one of the first ones.

As a consumer, one is not wrong to use that approach given Fords inconsistent reliability history, however, they are making significant strides to right their ship.
On a positive note, the Duratec35 is based off of the Duratec30, which was a good engine.

The acronym F.O.R.D is still very appropriate..."Found On Road, Dead" or "Fix Or Repair, Daily" Nothing has changed over the years.

How about the famed GT40 that won the 24 hours of Le Mans 4 times in a row?
I'm not a ford fan, but let's not throw feces for the sake of it.

My phrasing was a bit ambiguous.
My meaning was as the V-6 would'nt fit, to comment on the handling was irrelevant as it couldn't be done.

hmmm... I thought I read the sister V6s have their own internals from each company.(???) Or did that only apply to the previous 3 liter? Or am I making this up completely?

I was not referring to any model, just adding to the list of acronyms. I believe it's meant to be in reference to NASCAR
