| After hearing about this new turbo engine Ford has in the wings (and I have heard other similar stories hear and there from other companies) I'm just wondering why others aren't doing this. Especially GM. They are doing so well right now, I just hope they don't get too caught up in this hybrid hubub, because as various Toyotas prove, hubub is what it is. MPG isn't improved all that much, except in the Prius. Just think, if the lambdas had turbos like this, that model would have waiting lists like the Prius. Just a thought. | |

Unbelievable success, even the fuel price are high. http://editorial.autos.msn.com/listarticle.aspx?cp-documentid=434652 So I don't know what full size CUV get award, but Acadia is defiantly number one in full size CUV's categories. Plus, Lambdas win Motorweek's Drivers Choice Award: Best Crossover, 2nd year in a row. http://www.mpt.org/motorweek/dc2008/ |

Replying to: albook (Apr 07, 2008 5:53 pm) Click here for more info on which Fords will be getting the EcoBoost in the near future. Note that the Flex is one. MT has been wrong about some things recently though so I'd wait for a second opinion myself. I just hope they don't get too caught up in this hybrid hubub, because as various Toyotas prove, hubub is what it is. I agree. They still seem to be pushing E85 hard too. That has always been a mystery to me because it offers no fuel or money savings but now my pizzas cost more because farmers are growing more corn than wheat! OK, that's an oversimplification of the problem but you get the drift. |

Replying to: freealfas (Apr 08, 2008 8:37 pm) Around me the price differential has crept up to 90 cents per gallon (diesel vs. 87 octane gas). Perhaps that will drop as heating oil demand drops.

Replying to: aviboy97 (Apr 09, 2008 6:56 am) While we're on the subject of spending as little as possible, ALG announced its 2007 Residual Value Awards, and for CUV the winner was the Subaru Tribeca: https://www.alg.com/default.aspx?sid=29 Subaru gambled on high residuals for their leases, so I guess the strategy paid off. |
