Incorrect. The last run on a 5.9 was 222 to the rear end. Facts or facts.
The 4.7 CC will run 0-60 under 7.3 seconds.

pardon me, no no no. I'm sorry but a 4.7 auto is making nowhere near 225 at
the rear tires. The 5.9 (and I don't like that engine) makes approximately
175 at the rear wheels stock. The auto is horrible and sucks massive amounts
of power away. Even a 4.7 manual couldn't be making that much because the
manual setup still takes about 20 horses out. Your looking at 205 best with
a manual.
