Shelby is a washed up egotistical texan! Ford...if you are reading this....put that old man in the retirement home and let him race wheel chairs, and let SVT do what they do best.....make fast Fords!

So all he did was install the GT engine and drivetrain in an Expedition. What a genious.

Versions with a slightly less powerful engine could also be produced and sold in larger numbers for about $75,000, he said.


A similar version of the F-150 pick-up is also being considered, said Fenimore.

Sounds like the Dodge program where they put that Viper motor in everything they could find

I agree, retire Shelby and leave SVT alone...

So in so many words they're saying SVT program is changing to SHELBY program?

I don't care what they call it just make it affordable. And as they said, a similar version for the f-150 is being considered.

What the hell is FORD DOING!!!!!???? They are so confusing!!!!

Nice...I thought I was going to come back to this post and see all the slams against me. Its good to see the rest of us see that the old man may have made some cool stuff in the day, but he is long since washed up. He is also very fame and money hungry. SVT created cars the blue collar joe could buy. Smelby wants to think his poop don't stink, and make over priced "exclusive" crap!
