GM actually had a 7 and 3/4 liter V6 back in the 60's, it was 477 cubic inches.
and don't forget the often $15,000.00 OFF MSRP Sales Events advertised on TV --- makes me wonder the price, heck the discount could buy a small car..! No joke (I speak the truth) there was a F250 Ford 4x4 at Windward Ford in Kailua, Hawaii with a sticker price of $160,000.00 I almost lost my balance and fell when I saw the price (and I was prepared for seeing a big number, but not that big...)
