They did film a 7th test in which they all let their wives drive it for a week but it finally seized up and caught fire so they decided to act like they where just done testing it with this teardown.

The 448AA should be placed at the museum.

@mickblock thats pretty stupid, why would they disassemble a motor just to put it back together to have their wives test it?? it makes no sense.. that doesnt sounds like a "torture test" provide links from actual trusted websites that state they did a 7th video...

@ExLotus12 By now engine designers have as good an idea of how to structure an engine to hold up against the random stresses incurred during rapid temperature changes as they do about how to structure it against the more predictable torsion  forces.

@1234fllf 2013 there going to be a 650 hp and 600 punds or torque in one of their new engines for mustang! D:

@ExLotus12 It's 2012 if a turbo on a passenger vehicle didn't last that long then they wouldn't sell it. I got a buddy that has a Ecoboost in his F150 he already put 50k on it in less then a year, I'm gonna be getting on this year, this engine is a fucking beast

Exlotus you can go fuck yourself you dum bunt ford wins hands down all the way atleast in their trucks

[ExLotus12]

ah!! u poor inbred rednecks... you actually believe this fake ass commercial. so biased and skewed to make this crappy v6 look good. just after the dyno test, there should of been some type of damage done to it.. and the rapid temp. changes should of warped the shit out of it. and what turbo engine last 100k miles with out giving out. ford can lick my balls.

@1234fllf Than you have not driven the Taurus SHO, I own a 2011 and much funner to drive than a crappy ole Crown Vic which it replaced.
