IRS in the SVT Adrenalin, but not the Mustang? WTF!

So Ford is going to put an IRS in the SVT Adrenalin version of the Sport Trac, but not in the GT500. A truck with IRS, but not the car? Jeezuz that's stupid!

Plus, the Adrenalin will have AWD as an option. Can you imagine those options on a Mustang? AWD, IRS and a SC'd 5.4L?! Holy Chit!


I have a feeling the GT500 will run circles around the Adrenalin even with the solid axle. ;)

The Sport Trac is coming standard with IRS. The Mustang isn't. So an IRS would mean extra costs for the GT500. I say why pay the extra bucks for a little extra lateral stick that IRS would give? (The Mustang handles pretty darn well anyways.) Lateral stick you're unlikely to use very much anyway on the street. (Unlike extra horsepower.) I say save the IRS bucks and give me a lower priced GT500. (The more options we demand the higher the price goes.) Plus IRS is heavier, and it isn't as dragstrip friendly.

Long live the solid axle!

It's the skating around on frost heaves and other patches on patches on patches pieces of interstate that I don't like about solid axles.
