    You know what Wojzilla? I DO care. Why? Because this makes the fact that my RX-8 has the same exact mileage ratings and has less than HALF of the horsepower (please don't mention the t-word) that much more depressing. Fuck...

    If they could just get it up to 25mpg, maybe I could trade in my Jeep under Obama's new junk-the-junker plan or whatever that new car incentive program is called...


    Nah, I'd keep the Jeep.

    @maximum-sienna: In-glass antennas (antennae?) will show back up as malaise 2.0 gets back into full swing. And then the Fed will alter radio transmission rules to free up the current frequency bands for some random yet undecided federal need, so your antenna will be worthless.

    @pauljones: Even in this economic climate, there comes a certain point in one's life when your job spinning positive about the fuel economy of muscle cars grinds you down so much that you'd rather be unemployed and drunk for the rest of your days.


    This is one of those points.

    You guys think mpg is boring, just wait a few years until "grams of CO2 per 100 miles" becomes a common stat, like it is in Europe. It doesn't get more mind-numbing than poring over decimalized emissions stats in order to decide which band of taxes you want on your next car.


    At least mpg is objective, with a tangible financial and convenience payoff for the owner. Unlike trying to "solve" global warming by changing your vehicle's emissions in a negligible manner.

    If you're getting 22mpg in one of these, you're not trying hard enough.


    It should be single-digits.

    Me: Yes, hello, Ford. I would like a Shelby GT 500 please. Yes, the one with the fantastic fuel economy. /sarcasm


    Dealership: Any option?


    Me: Yep, every option.


    Dealership: And how will you be paying for that?


    Me: I'll be financing that today.


    Dealership: What terms would you like?


    Me: Doesn't really matter, just as long as it comes out to $700/month.

    The ePRS (US Patent No. c11077983) reduced the press release to this:


    The 2010 Ford Shelby GT500 gets 540 hp and 510 torques and some gearing changes.


    It also gets 2mpg more than last year, so we beg you, World Wildlife Fund, please stop giving all the pandas chlamydia!
