I've been considering replacing my wife's 07 Explorer with a newer Ex Sport with the ecoboost. Apparently it has some balls. This thread it definitely influencing that decision.
Its pretty quick for a 5000# vehicle. With the downpipes, catback, CAI and tune it sure feels like a mid 12 sec car.

Damn
...I first owned this. All 130hp of it. Lowered, custom retrofit of projectors and the obvious, tints and it had different wheels as well. I drive by it all the time, so maybe I'll snap a more recent picture. The projectors were 5300k bulb hid's with blue halos. And the fogs were 6000k, but the camera made them look teal ()
Now I currently own this beast. So far only needed a clutch job that I did on my back. Only mods include catless downpipe, a piggy back tune, and interior led's changed to blue and white mixed.
This one was straight after a detail last year.

Yea, a lot of secret ford guys on here lol
My Ecoboost F150 ran 13.6@99MPH with nothing but a tune. It is otherwise stock down to the paper air filter. It weighs about 5700lbs. My Ecoboost Flex was tune only and was quite a bit quicker, but I never took it to the track. I would guess very low 13's. I've seen the SHO's run high 12's with just a tune.

2012 Chevy Cruze 1LT/RS 1.4T 6spd auto. 40mpg saves $$$ to dump in the Buick. Changes so far are a ZZP intake, Forge BPV, Trifecta 93oct tune (+40whp) and tint. I have a downpipe and midpipe for it and will be changing the wheels soon. Just can't leave well enough alone .
Before that I had this 2000 ZR2 Blazer which got 14mpg. I miss it in the winter.

They are that bad? Ive heard srt cherokees have problems but never really the tb ss'
Mine wasn't. I bought it with 35k miles and sold it with 70k miles. In that time I had to replace tires, battery, and I think the starter. It was a 2WD with minor mods like e fans, intake, exhaust, tune, and of course a trans cooler. When I sold it, it had a slight rear main seal leak that me and the current owner did not bother with because you have to pull the motor to get the pan off. The current owner had to replace the alternator, water pump, and rear air bags. Honestly I would have gone coilovers all around and dumped the air suspension. It now has 120k miles. Gotta remember to keep them 1/2 quart overfilled with oil or you can starve for oil on hard launches.

Here's mine. 2009 Pontiac G8 GT. Original Owner. 6+ years old. Over 120K miles. Not a single rattle or squeak. Headers, cats, exhaust, CAI, Dyno tune. Runs 12.7's all day long at 109-110 mph on street tires. Love this car for rarity, size, power, etc.
