What does Ford have that GM doesnt? If someone says Ecoboost, Im gunna pass out with laughter.
Ford has the Eb engines which are tuned for effiency not power like GM, a better Hybrid battery with a new one coming out in Jamuary, more effient engines with the boss's(ford instance Fords 5.0V8 makes 400 hp in the Mustang, GM has to use the 6.2 in the Camaro to get 400 hp. Smaller displacement=better fuel economy.
