well put, technology might be the reason for more power with less cubes, but you sacrifice reliablity to some extent too and thats why i like my 5.0 although its not a HELLA fast motor stock, it responds well to mods, gets good gas mileage and with regular maintenance goes over 300K, when i went to buy my first car i remember i couldnt find any under 100K and over 5 of them were so ****ing cheap because of 300K+ miles... thats why even though my car has even worse problems than the buick in this thread i still have a car that wont fail on me, as long as i keep putting 50weight full syntheic motor oil in it LOFL
