Well no, my family is a Ford family. That should read: Ford of Eutpe tech> or =BMW.
My parents had a Ford LTD, then a 78 T bird, then a 87 Lincoln Town Car wit the underpowered 5.0, I had a 87 Ford Taurus that like to run hot and go thru water pumps, same thing with my sister's Mercury Sable.
Then the fact that Ford let Lincoln languish and be the "old man's ride", save for the Mark VIII and the LS, which they discontinued.

Ford had to come out with the 5.0, that 4.6 sounded good, but needed to be updated and more power.

All of you guys saying BMW r/d sucks, last time I checked the V10, and V8s were done at the F1 facility... And let's not get into the legendary S54 (yes even with the problems). Plus, they were in F1 and in Ama, BMW is like the Honda of Europe.
