Why this one? Less fuel burn? Range? Speed? Load?

Do you know the guy from here in Calhoun, Ken W., that races vettes, CF member, corporate pilot for Target?

We did the Mustang for fewer people but longer range but all was not as the salespeople would have you beleive. Now we do as much Knoxville - Texas or California stuff as <500 mi stuff so this made a better option. Now we can get to Sacramento on one tank or Europe on 2 and no real big sacrifice for the short trips.

Good luck with her. And safe travels.

If you ever feel like jumping over to the Winston Salem airport on the way to some fun destination, let me know. I'll buy you a couple of beers or something.

If you choose to bring two or three 22 year old honeys, I can also offer to be ballast if necessary.

The only early 20s girl that I know (that isn't dumb as shit) is my 23 year old daughter. But you're not on the right team, if you know what I mean.
