Well, I have to say I did not know they fitted the eco-boost motor to the Falcon, I know it came in the Mustang of course. I think I stopped paying attention to Fords and Holdens when I bought the FJ in 2016 and when they announced they were stopping manufacturing here. I guess I just stopped reading about them.

Also, there are currently 14 available for sale on car sales in Australia, and they all look in quite decent condition, and are asking from $7800 to $23800. I guess the bogans don't want them.

By the time it launched, it was too little, too late. There was some suggestion that all three were car companies were rorting the government money. I suspect the EcoBoost's development cost was a lot less than what Ford claimed, so a lot of that government money went straight back to Detroit. Of course, when that cash flow stopped, Ford said goodby Australia. Same for Holden, it just took them a little longer.

That spaghetti on top of the engine is my worst nightmare. That's why I keep my mods simple, or pay someone else to do it.
