2.3 mpg?
And that 23mpg is a lie. More like 3mpg.
But Barney said I could have it all now......now.
Dude's got a mean theme song tho.
did it ride like a boat?
Rode like a battleship.
If you watch some chase scenes from early 80 shows and movies, it was also a popular cop car.
probably weighed the same to, huh?
My high school car was a '68 Ford Galaxy 500. It was the exact same car and color (black body, white top) that the highway patrol was using. I put a CB in it with an amplified speaker in the grill and a big whip antenna in the back (like the highway patrol) and got one of those Starsky and Hutch magnetic red rotating lights. I'd cruise up behind my friends at night, whip the lights on, and tell em to "pull it over!" with the loudspeaker and watch them throw all their weed out the window...![]()
My first car was a 1969 Mercury Cougar.
Grill would rotate to reveal headlights. Had electric everything. Pretty much a luxury version of a Mustang.
That karma will come back and kick yer ass someday.![]()
As soon as I got out of college and got a job I ditched that piece of for a new 4WD pickup, later traded that for a 280Z and then bought a custom L88 Vette.
Then I got married.
*sigh*
Went to one of the old full size Jeep Grand Wagoneers. That was a studly truck.

What Are Top EV-Friendly Cities Doing for Electric Vehicles?
“Cities are also leading by example. Many have already added electric vehicles to municipal fleets and incorporated hybrid buses into public transportation. They are placing charging spots at public buildings and, in some cases, offering discounted electricity rates for EV users from municipal-owned utilities. Just as important, cities are using their convening power to assemble multi-stakeholder groups that include city planners, automakers, utilities, infrastructure suppliers, academic and research ins utions, and city and national officials. These groups work together to create a roadmap for EV readiness that considers all stakeholder perspectives and seeks to identify and address technical, economic and regulatory barriers to EV adoption and integration.”

I just saw a Chevy Volt on the road the other day... first time... funky looking car.
Electric cars, meh.
What's really exciting is the prospect of Google's self-driving cars.
