That's right ss/calias are everywhere.
The 5.4 even made more power than the ss and the GM still sold well, it's a car that ticks the boxes for that segment at the right price.
Ford are on drugs if they think the xr6t can carry the load, it's proving to be an incorrect strategy (although there are many other factors in fords sales performance at the moment).
A V8 option in the falcon range won't save them, but it will sell more cars and make more money in the long term than the Miami vehicles.
