A final fun fact: This spec of 2024 EcoBoost is only one second quicker to 60 mph than a 2023 F-250 SuperCrew 4x4. Be careful who you try to race for pinks, folks.

Well, if the Ecoboost manages to make it a quarter mile.

But new vehicles that more or less drive themselves are wickedly quick.

But since I don’t race, the actual specs for things like 0 to 60 are far less important that the actual fun of driving the thing. I have heard a lot of people state that the fifth generation camaro was more fun to drive than the sixth gen.

However, the styling of the sixth generation doesn’t look all that different from the fifth so that makes it fourteen years old. There are still a ton of them on the road even with the flagging sales, so it is hardly surprising that people are declining to buy them.

Plus, a 300hp entry model is really too much car for the new drivers that the car should be most appealing to.
