Would you're T-bird have the supercharged v6 ? Or was it dropped by then ?

What's the 0-62 (mph)? IIRC they tend to be relatively low (fast) on US cars, more of an emphasis on sheer grunt over emissions/efficiency I think.

That's a fairly out of date POV, if you don't mind my saying.
The "big 3" have had to make some quick progress in the pas tfew years. It's a shame as GM and Ford seemed to be making progress but they were just not selling, presumeably due to a poor histroical record.
I don't know what's happening at Chrysler nowadays.

It's a bit of a stereotype, yeah, but in my last few trips to the US I've not seen much on the road to indicate a shift to more efficient, smaller vehicles. That was before the recent crises, of course, and I think a lot of the worst offenders (trucks & SUVs) are being traded in for the US equivalent of the scrappage scheme.

It was dropped in '95 I think. Intsead they put in a 4.6L V8, which I think gives better performance than the super V6.

uh whoops lol

isnt it hard to drive when the front wheels are off the ground and you have to push that big truck in front of you?

In a front wheel drive car? You bet!

Oh snap I see your license plate! Watch for creepy internet stalkers now!
