Wait a few weeks and you can get a 2007 with a 3.5(?) liter. More torque and HP. You should drive one to determine if it has enough performance for your needs. The engine is NOT the vulcan, but (I think) a Duratec style dohc.
Check for more info at http://www.blueovalnews.com/ which has some dope on FoMoCo products.
