To fill in bit of off season blues time google Ford F150 Lighting. This electric prototype towing 1.2m LBs [ pounds], think that equates to 545,454 kgs.

The video they show is double decker rail carriages with 42 F150 [ 1 for ea yr of production] hence the weight but usual PR gimmick, truck has no ballast in back but pulls away with no wheel slip. But with 0 to 100 kph in 4.6 sec some beast, and power your house for 3 days good back up and would have huge appeal to Americans with their huge wind problems causing days of power outages. Parents of the future will not know what time daughter gets home if boyfriend has an electric vehicle .

I'll mention a few, gt40, red waka, Chris Allens cars and hoonicorn Add to that, Simbo's and Tom Rusher sprint cars, Radish BTCC Mondeo, McLauglin Mustang, Steve McQueens Bullit car. Midway probably carts metal and veges on a Ford Cost Cutter or Trader |and a Louisville to carry his money to the bank. This electric F150 may prove to be the giant leap forward for Ford that the Model A was in it's day.

The country,s only refinery posted an annual loss of 198 .3 million last year due the the glut in fuel supplies globally Marsden Point oil refinery is likely to be a fuel import terminal only from next year ,with a loss of 400 jobs . So it looks like the Gerry cans will be around for sometime yet Naki like the field mushrooms growing in the front paddock ..
