Times have changed. I can drive DW's new 2020 Ford Edge ST with the twin turbo 2.7L V6 with 335 HP and 380 lb ft of torque like I stole it and it still get 19-21 MPG. 0-60 is noted at 5.7 secs. 14.1 and 98 in the 1.4 mile. Funny thing is it is faster than my old 1967 Camaro SS350 that was 1200 lbs lighter. And on a windy road the ST would run away and hide from the Camaro with it's Ford Performance Departments tuned suspension. Specs on your old 2000 RT 0-60 mph in 9.1 sec. Times surely have changed.
