Almost as good as bacon

I dunno Jim.

You weren't South of the Equator, so why is your treat upside down?

There's something vaguely disturbing about that gif Bob!
Not sure why!

Just announced at Ford.

The Mustang Mach E.

2021 Ford® Mustang Mach-E SUV | All-Electric & Exhilarating

An all electric Mustang, available in late 2020.

At a price that should drive the Tesla prices down, starting at $43,895.

Place your preorder today!

Kinda sucks that it is a 4 door though.

I kind of like the new car. I was hoping for a crossover version of the Focus that they touted a while back but this looks nice.

If I didn't know any better I'd say you were in Australia... You know, because they say everything is upside down? Yeah, I know crummy joke...

Hi Sav

So why didn't you just dangle some bacon over your arm.......

I could almost have done that the next day. But then the critter came up to us rather than me coming up to him. I didn't get any picture of that, though. The advice given was to sit still and keep quiet if an elephant or buffalo approached - so that's what we did

My wife did manage a crummy shot of my d-i-l and me and the elephant's bum after it had passed by - she was in another part of the camp.

Kids - that was a joke. Don't annoy wildlife that can kill you.

It's a bit late telling me that now, isn't it!

Dave.... Because the local bacon refused to dangle.

I like to too but I'm not sure about calling it a "Mustang". That, to me, just seems a little wrong.

Maybe it's becasue with that level of non-Tesla acceleration, it 'must-ang' back at traffic lights.

Well if it was offered in a 2 door version, it might be OK.

Well the Tesla S is in the mid 2 second range for 0 to 60, and Ford claims mid 3 second, so not too much different.

And there will likely be hotrodder hacks to the software to get more performance out of them, eh?

That's what welding kits are for.

But it's an SUV. If it was a two door SUV, it should be a Bronco!
