One of the biggest mistakes Ford made in the last 20 years was not producing the GT-90, IMO. To have a true American supercar - 750 hp, performance somewhere beyond McLaren range...ahhh, well. Maybe they'll auction one off that I can pick up ;)

Looked all over but not found a drawbar on it yet. Also no 3 point hitch, PTO shaft, a place to mount a corn picker or a front end loader.

A man could lose a crop if he bought one of those things...... : )

Almost certain IHC did not design this "Prototype" tractor. : )

It is nice, isn't it? But, no GT-90 for you and me :-(

OTOH, there are serious rumors that Ford really will bring back the revamped GT-40 in the near-future:

Nope, you've been naughty...so you get one of these:

Of course, in a more perfect world, it'd be the particularly naughty girls who get their Porsches....

IIRC, they showed it in Detroit back in January, but I haven't heard of any firm plans to bring it to showroom floors just yet. Still waiting, but they're tossing around a price tag of about $100K - that's about $25K more than the base Viper, so we'll see how competitive they think they can be in this market...
