When Jarrod Dreher wanted a pickup that could tow and haul anything he threw at it, he decided on the 2017 Ford F-250 Lariat and never looked back. A part of the Blue Oval’s recently redesigned Super Duty line, this truck offers more than half-ton trucks, but the same class-exclusive convenience as the lauded F-150.
Although power numbers make for bragging rights among pony car owners, the devil is in the details. So while the 2018 Ford Mustang GT now boasts an impressive 460 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque, how that power gets the bestselling muscle car moving is just as important. Configure it with these options, and you’ll hit sixty miles per hour in less than four seconds, while enjoying more cornering bite and confidence.
One of the most touted features of this generation of the Ford Mustang has been the line-lock feature available on GT models. A form of launch control, it locks the front brakes when engaged, allowing for up to fifteen seconds of tire smoking fun before letting you blast off. For the 2018 Mustang, this feature will no longer be limited to V8 models.
