1994 Mustang V-6






Here we have the 1994-1998 Mustang V6, which is a perfect car for people who want the look of a sports car, without the actual "sports" part. This bad boy has six big chunks of metal slinging around inside that massive cast iron block at once, pushing out an incredible 150 horsepower, by way of it's 3.9 liters of displacement. Let's do some math, Ford. That equals roughly 38.5 horsepower per liter to propel a car that weighs well over a ton-and-a-half.

Well played, Ford. With that kind of technology, you are now qualified to manufacture river barges for use on the Mekong Delta 35 years ago.

Ford clearly broke several barriers with this radical engine design, and became the first car company to design an engine that was roughly as efficient as a quadruple amputee who does manual labor in a warehouse. Hopefully Ford will wise up one day and just go ahead and replace this variant of the Mustang with the Ford Taurus since that's what people who drive this need to be driving anyway.

They just need someone to tell them.

Other features include a Bill Cosby endorsed "jello suspension," a special "Rustang Red" paint scheme which quickly oxidized and faded off of the car the minute you drove it off of the lot, and keeping with the classic "Built Ford Tough" moniker, the car's whopping 3,300 pounds meant that it would stay planted to the ground during an F5 hurricane, but probably not in the middle of a steep turn when traveling over 30 miles per hour, in conjunction with the 6 inch wide all-weather factory tires.
