guys.. i need your help bad on this one..


im trading my mustang GT in for a 08 or 07, and have found a few nice ones.. but one is a 4.7 2x4 .. not real excited about the double negative there..

and one is a 4.7 4x4, atleast its 4 wheel drive..

then one that is a 5.7 but 2 wheel drive..


and im like... wtf.. why cant i just find a 4x4 in a hemi.. I want the MDS and i deff want the power of a Hemi.. i might be able to deal with out the 4 wheel drive..

BUT.. HERES MY MAIN QUESTION...


how much different is the 4.7 vs the HEMI as far as get up and would i be pissed if i went with a 4.7?.. i made the mistake of doing that with my 06 f150, and got a 4.6.. the fcker couldnt even get out of its own way.. and coming from a mustang, no matter what i get is going to feel slow, so a 4.7 im worried will be even worse..


help me please!.. should i keep looking, and get a 5.7, or settle even trade for a 4.7?

thank you guys

 

Get the Hemi. The extra 35hp and 45lb/ft is well worth it. I never even looked at the 4.7L.

 

same here, I had a 4.7 in a Jeep and now have the 5.7 hemi in my truck very big difference..I tow a 25' TT and the Truck doesn't know it's even there..

 

The 4.7 and hemi arent that big of a difference, at least not for 1 liter more. 310 to 345 HP, and I think 345 to 390 TQ. I have a 4.7 and Im happy with it, faster than you would think, not so quick though, but what truck is. If money isnt an issue then go with the hemi, but the 47 aint bad at all

 

You will be twice as happy with the hemi. When and if you get into any heavy modding you will find more things available for the hemi as well. Heads, cam, forced induction, rotating assemblies etc. They are availale for 4.7 but the hemi is just going to have a larger 3rd party product availability.

I had a 4.7 in my 2001 durango. It was a smooth motor.

The MDS is so so.

 

"money for nothing and the chicks for free" get the damn hemi

 

+1 for 5.7

 

Hemi for sure!

 

Hemi for sure...you wont regret it at all!

 

HEMI!!! Almost the same mileage as the 4.7, ETC, MDS and more power...I love mine, I went from a 4x4 to the 4x2 for the simple reason that without four wheel drive i wouldnt be tempted to do all the stupid things i did with my old truck!
