'07. Sorry.

Depending on the build date, Dipped's pony might be the 3.8. According to Wikipedia - which means the information is absolutely reliable - FoMoCo didn't start dropping in the 3.9 until October 7 '03. The ratings were the same, however.

Also according to the Wikipedia Oracle of Irrefutable Facts, the Essex 3.8 owes a tip o' the cap to the Buick V6, since the Blue Oval needed a new middlin' large V6 and didn't have one in the stable, and reverse-engineered the Buick.
