Syphoon?

This would be great, if Ford did it, and did it right. It's time for another small performance truck. Just a concept in somebody's mind right now, but imagine how good it could be. I'd like to see them skip the 2.3 and go right to 2.7.

We recently spied a sporty version of the Ford Maverick and it set our imaginations ablaze. Until Ford confirms a Maverick ST, at least we can all dream.

Meh, its a great idea, but in the end I'd choose a full size if I was buying one, no matter what the performance specs and price point were. I agree with the 2.7 idea. Make it perform like a 2.3 with two more cylinders! If they could make the 2.7 Eco boost push power like the 2.3 in the mustang, that would be a sports truck for sure. Say, around 400 hp, and a performance suspension. Some people would certainly buy that instead of a mustang for sure. I'd still want a GT though, I've had plenty of trucks in my life, I see them as expensive tools now.

Yikes, 2.7. Have you seen those shoehorned into the Bronco(Ranger Sized) engine bay? Even the 2.3's are a jumbled mess of stuff in a bigger bay, and the Maverick is an even smaller/FWD platform.

Would be cool, don't know if you'd get any reliability out of that much power and that drivetrain though.

I like it.

The 2.3 Ecoboost can be built to some pretty impressive numbers. I would put a wrap on it to make it look like a RC car and a big fake antenna on the roof.
