Well that isn't a ban that is a change in the way food is marketed, two totally different things. I do agree that NYC and San Fran are ridiculous to even consider such things but I digress.

I also never stated that hitting a parked car is the same as hitting a wall. Please read again. All I was stating with that sentence was speed is relative.

It's 1984 all over again for the mustang.

I4 turbo, V6 and a 5.0 V8 option. Spooky. I'll laugh if they call the I4 Turbo an SVO.

Let's just hope we don't get 1984 power levels this go around....
