  • History Repeating Itself

    This seems like the 1960s all over again

    Ford GT kills Ferrari
    Then Ford builds the "05" mustang
    The Ford GT gets canned
    Three or four years later Chevy and Dodge have rivals for the mustang
    Ford has shelby help built a GT500
    Ford plans new packages to compete with Chevy and Dodge
    The ZR1 comes out
    Big engines are becoming mainstream
    The big american 4 door is somewhat popular (chysler 300, caddy cts)
    Street racing gets crazy
    Gas prices rise BIG time, with projections of $4 per gallon
    The goverment starts making more "i hate car" laws for the future (safety, gas regulation, other crap)


    still to come:
    muscle cars get canned
    ecoboxes are the norm (well this is already kinda happening)
    a bunch of car junkie hot rodders say "screw high gas prices, im building a hot rod"





    I feel like history is almost directly repeating itself.... its good and it sucks at the same time.

                              If you listen to the classic rock station in Detroit(WCXS), They play the same songs I listened to on WRIF in the '70s. They even have some of the DJs that were on WRIF.
