I love you, lets get married Spanks for sticking up for me!

Well, when you put a car in a list with other cars 10 times it's price then it's fairly obvious which one people are going to pick. Plus, from a performance aspect the Mustang simply isn't in the same league as the others. Don't get me wrong, I'm a Ford guy at heart and my last 2 vehicles were Mustangs, but the Ford GT would have been better placed in the poll. But, you're right, it is her poll and she can put whatever she wishes in there - I was simply pointing out the reason why others were complaining.

Regarding the Ford engines - they are far from being good engines. Look at the current Mustang GT - 260 HP from a 4.6 2 valve engine. Mitsu make more than that with a 2.0 4 banger with the help of FI. There are 6 cylinder cars like the Maxima that put out the same HP but with less torque. The only decent Ford engine is the 03/4 Cobra engine, and they had to go FI to get there. The build quality is also not as bad as some people suggest either.
