Ford news. And check out the link at the bottom to take a look at one mean Sport Trac!



Ford's headliner in New York is a high-performance version of the Mustang. Engineered by Ford's Special Vehicle Team, the next-generation Mustang Cobra is expected to go on sale in 2006. In a nod to high-performance Mustangs of the 1960s, the 2007 model will carry the Shelby name. Ford also will display the Sport Trac Adrenalin concept in New York. Powered by a 390-hp, supercharged 4.6-liter V-8, it teases at a performance version that could be coming for Ford's next-generation Sport Trac. Ford has confirmed that the redesigned Sport Trac - slated to go on sale in 2006 after moving to an updated Ford Explorer platform



- will get a V-8 engine.

Mike,

I don't know... at first glance it looks kinda neat looking. And then when you find out there's a 390-horse motor under the hood, it looks damn good!

But none of them have handles on them. Look at the pics again close.

I must say, I kinda like it! Can't wait to see one in person, if it ever exists. Erik D. '94 white lightning '01 white GT

The handles are an extra-cost option.

Actually the lack of handles are the extra-cost option....
