Oppions on Modular Engine Design

Im sure this issue has been brought up an endless amount of times, but I just wanted to know your oppions.

First off I think the biggest flop was stating the 4.6L V8 could replace the 302 (maybe in the stang, but deffintly not int he trucks IMO). The 5.4L was a great engine, at least in terms of modular series, tows our 5400 lbs. boat great.

Although these engine can/are replacing the old rod engines, I still will sorta miss them. 351, 302, 300 I6.

I also miss the Direction they are taking with getting about from manual trannys.
