V6 barf! Why in the world other than making the engine shorter for a shorter front end, would they go from a super smooth and heavy duty I-5 to the V6 design. I hate V design engines.

Notice that after several decades, GM has returned to the I-5 and I-6 in many of there trucks.

Inline engines are smoother, have less parts, more main bearing surface area, much less vibration, more torque, 1 head.

They are longer and taller, but so what.

Down with V style engines.
