Default V8 going away?

Reports are that a new inline 6 is coming and will eventually the V8 5.7 is going away. Power is power no matter how you make it, but definitely the end of an era.

FCA produces this same engine for JLR (Jaguar / Land Rover) which is the Ingenium 3.0L I6 which started to show up in the 2019 models

I hope Jag had nothing to do with the design, the 3.9L that they used in the Lincoln LS was a friggin disaster. The ignition would fail at the drop of a hat, and a bad plug would backfeed into the ECM and fry the trans controls. It's so bad there's a company dedicated to rebuilding the ECMs for those cars.

Must be a Lucas ignition...... That's why Jag owners were told if they own one, they should have a second, for when the first one is in the shop, because the ignition crapped out.
