Make up your mind. Do you want MPG or power? You cant have both in an old american car. If you want both, get a new European 4 door V8 or a
tesla roadster.

no homo

They all did.

Im curious: which european v8 gets both good fuel economy AND power? As far as I know, the consumption on euro v8's like the new m3, audi's, mb's are pretty horrendous.

^^^ better then a camaro/mustang...

anyways i am going to agree with every one else don't bother trying to find a fuel efficient v8 unless you wanna go to a new charger/300 and so with that displacement crap and even then not that big of an improvement. maybe look into buying something and building a motor yourself so than you have some control on what performance mods and efficiency mods you want or can do


get an old caprice interceptor and put a lsx motor in it

what gears does the bronco have? get a set of 30's or 31's to drive on, and keep ypur foot out of the trottle, a good tune up helps, after doin a tune up and changin my driving style the fuel milage in my truck went fom 7 to nearly12
