Ford Lightning

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

The argument about purchase price v resale value and how fast could the take up be, the first photo shows the 13 yrs between 1900 and 1913 and the take up of petrol powered horseless buggies ..... there is an interesting article with something called the Osborne effect .... I don't think it's Ozzie Osborne they are referring to here ;)

The value of a non electric vehicle purchased today might be a bit like the value of a 4 yr old car in Japan not all that long ago ....
