Boss Engine Dead before it's release.

Another high performance V8 engine has fallen to the $4+ dollar gas prices. The Boss engine, which was slated to appear in the rumored Boss Mustang and F-150 will now only have a home in the Super Duty which needs a more efficient replacement for it’s 6.8L gas guzzling V10. The news isn’t really shocking to most of us, just disappointing, as gas prices were making a high performance, large displacement motor much less feasible for the Mustang. Ford will likely take the funding for the Boss engine and point it toward much more fuel efficient programs such as the Ford Fiesta which will be making it’s appearance in American soon. So the Boss Mustang that was slated for 2010, has been scraped as well.

that sucks! was looking forward to it... Dodge and Chevy pulled through so can ford! hi-perf ftw

I really hate hearing this. The "Boss" was a car I was looking forward to purchase in 2010.. Now I guess I'll have to see what else sparks my interest.

It seems high gas prices are killing the muscle car all over again! Seems we've been down that road before.

Introducing the 2010 4cyl boss jr

How about a 2010 King Cobra (mustangII)

That is just wrong...but understandable with gas being as high as it is. It will get worse before it ever gets better...As for me, I would own my Stang if gas was twice the price it is today...
