So, I guess this is the official announcement of the Mustang's next drivetrain?

Skeptically checking the calendar, nope not April Fools...

Some how I still highly doubt this. If you were a test driver for Roush, I'm sure they would be able to easily identify you from this posting AND kick you to the curb for violating any secret trust agreements they have with Ford.

I sent this to roush.... We shall see.

The below post was made on Stangnet.com. Obviously many are wondering if he is legitimate. I thought you might want to share a comment. Thanks and keep making such outstanding mustangs.

Considering Roush sponsors StangNet, why don't I just have them come reply here?

Now I'm anxiously awaiting the post saying if we hadn't been so skeptical or ratted him out to Roush that we'd have had info.

I heard from my cousin's uncle's mother's dad's neighbor's ex-boyfriend's brother that the new GT will have 600HP and get 50MPG. Guess we'll just have to actually wait and see what FORD has to say.

I believe everyone is a bit skeptical, myself included. Why wouldn't any of the guys from Roush that are already members on the site post this, if it were true? And why wouldn't your IP address resolve to somewhere near Roush's facilities in Michigan, or New Hampshire, not to Lehigh Acres, Florida? Sorry, this one is pure.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished
(So Shines a Good Deed in a Naughty World)
by Franklin P. Adams

There was a man in our town who had King Midas’ touch;
He gave away his millions to the colleges and such;
And people cried: “The hypocrite! He ought to understand
The ones who really need him are the children of this land!”
When Andrew Croesus built a home for children who were sick,
The people said they rather thought he did it as a trick,
And writers said: “He thinks about the drooping girls and boys,
But what about conditions with the men whom he employs?”

There was a man in our town who said that he would share
His profits with his laborers, for that was only fair,
And people said: “Oh, isn’t he the shrewd and foxy gent?
It cost him next to nothing for that free advértisement!”

There was a man in our town who had the perfect plan
To do away with poverty and other ills of man,
But he feared the public jeering, and the folks who would defame him,
So he never told the plan he had, and I can hardly blame him.
