Anyone regret getting the slower, less fuel efficient, lower tow rated engine?

Sadly it's the way of the internet, doesn't matter if your talking trucks, cabbages or the trees on your front lawn, you'll always find someone to tell you your wrong and if it's not what they have you made a mistake.

So my daughter has a GT with a 5.0 and the Mrs wants a Q60 with the TT V6 to try and outrun the stang. It will truly never end. One thing is for sure, it will be a fun family night at the local 1/8 mile strip. Hoping the new 4x4 will take em both.

well buddy the truth is we are all different. I have zero need for a v8. Me and the misses are both hard working nurses. Family life consumes us. It is what it is. I’m not pretending to be some testosterone laden bad ***. I truely don’t have a need for a truck. Don’t haul. Don’t tow. I could’ve easily spent $50k on a BMW or Benz. But I prefer the size and convenience of a truck. “Come in kids throw all your **** in the back and let’s get going”.

Sorry if thats not manly enough for you. But hey, it is what it is.
