As far as the family comment, Ive got 2 kids (1 2yo and 1 5yo) and a wife to go with it and we regularly take trips to the beach or wherever. The kids love it! Ive also had 2 fully grown men approximately 225-260 in the back seat at the same time and the both remarked it was amazingly comfortable. As far as the 302 thermostat housing comment, whats wrong with them? Ive been building 302s and 351s for years and never once had a complaint about them. My 2 cents.

Now I know what you're trying to say here but really, in the future, you refrain from writing anything remotely resembling this in the Ford Tech section. OBD will be on this like stink on shit. Brace yourself.

Yeah I defnitely see how that could be a problem. LOL. Point taken. But yeah, I was honestly surprised the seat was big enough. Still can be taken the wrong way. LOL.

Wait till your kids grow a bit more. I have a 17 yo and a 12 yo. They "fit" in the back of my SN-95, but only if my wife and I have the front seats pulled forward quite a bit. At 6'4" for me, thats not the best thing in the world for my knees...esp on long trips. In our 67, fuggedaboutit. No room in the back seat for even a little azin chick, let alone an adult. We have had 2 of the S-197's so far. An 05, and an 06. Yes, the back is roomier, but still not "comfortable" by any means. I found it very interesting that smaller vehicles had much more leg room, trunk space....But they had much smaller motors too....Which with the right tweeks and mods, could put out the same hp numbers. Kinda a disapointment.....But I LOVE the looks of the 05-09's....But this 2010 looks funky. I'll give it some time to get used to...Maybe I'll even own one later...(I said the sn-95's were disgusting when they came out too...Now I own TWO of them. )

Like I said man Ive had 2 fully grown (200lbs +) men in the back seat and they said they were fine. But Im only 5'9" so that might be part of it! But seriously, Im liking this new one, Id buy one but I like my 94.

They were being polite. I tried putting a small woman back there, and she said "OMG! It's really small back here isn't it!?!"
I said" You're lucky I'm not back there with you....The seat being small would be the least of your worries!"
