        I'll agree with you when an electric car can go 100mph and 500miles on a single refuel and carry a ton of firewood.

        100 mph... a legal speed limit? I can only dream. Until then, it's a moot point. 500 miles on a single refuel means that the range is 250 miles, correct? I believe the Tesla can do 220 miles so it's almost there. Unfortunately it takes a while for it to recharge and it can't carry a ton of anything. It's a start though.

          Was'nt an option for the f150, but I hear the tesla has an option for a little green pussy, but that'll cost another $100k.

              There is a Starbucks near the hardware store, I almost run over those little cars as they pull out onto highway from the Starbucks. Damn annoying, if they outlaw pickup trucks and talking on cell phones while driving, they should outlaw girly-men driving little battery powered cars holding a $5 double latte.

                I used to drive a 350 dually. I used to run over those little 150's as they pulled out onto the highway. ;)

                    You're pitiful, you don't even know your own History - The author of that quote is former Defense Secretary James Schlesinger, on Fox News. A real Patton's quote is, about General Philippe Leclerc commanding the 2ème Division blindée (2nd Armoured Division): "Leclerc came in very much excited. He said, among other things, that if he were not allowed to advance on Paris, he would resign. I told him in my best French that he was a baby and said I had left him in the most dangerous place on the front. We parted friends"

                        No, it isn't. It's possible I suppose that Schlesinger quoted Patton and did not attribute the quote, but every - count 'em, every on line attribution I could find (1,820) says that the line is Patton's. I'd be careful about who you call pathetic, in the future. My favorite quote on this subject comes from Gen. H. Norman Schwartzkopf: "Going to war without France is like going deer hunting without your accordion."

                              Lance Corporal Harley B. Veugenstein, September 10th, 1944. Omgoodness. I can't find an attribution to back it up my claim. Just as you can't find an attribution for Schlesinger. Don't bother. I did what you should have done. I checked.

                                You won't be able to do it for a simple reason: It's a lie. the french-bashing crowd likes to repeat it again and again, it's still a lie. - When inspecting the 2ème DB, Patton asked to every soldier what was his favorite weapon. At the end of the day he made a speech saying that he was disappointed becayse he didn't get the answers he expected from French soldiers: the best weapon is the bayonnet, because when you use it it means it is planted in the body of your enemy ("La 2ème DB", Erwan Bergot, ISBN 2-7242-0867-6)

                                  There is a Starbucks near the hardware store, I almost run over those little cars as they pull out onto highway from the Starbucks. Damn annoying, if they outlaw pickup trucks and talking on cell phones while driving, they should outlaw girly-men driving little battery powered cars holding a $5 double latte.

                                    You won't be able to do it for a simple reason: It's a lie. the french-bashing crowd likes to repeat it again and again, it's still a lie. - When inspecting the 2ème DB, Patton asked to every soldier what was his favorite weapon. At the end of the day he made a speech saying that he was disappointed becayse he didn't get the answers he expected from French soldiers: the best weapon is the bayonnet, because when you use it it means it is planted in the body of your enemy ("La 2ème DB", Erwan Bergot, ISBN 2-7242-0867-6)

                                    I know English is your second language, but "Misattributed" doesn't mean that James Schlesinger said it. It means that he wrongly attributed it to Patton.

                                    You sound just like Ilion. Why is it that people like the two of you need to call everyone who doesn't agree with you, "intellectually dishonest?" I admit that you found a quote I couldn't. You didn't understand it, but as I said, you don't speak the language. I was wrong. :-O

                                    I believe you're a whiney little boy. But in terms of this, I don't know what to believe. It is possible, I suppose, that all 1800 of the attributions to Patton come from Schlesinger; on the other hand, why trust Wikiquote over Wikipedia? Just because you do? Here's a hint for you. The truth is not what you choose to believe. It is what you investigate, test, verify, and then accept - even if you don't like it. And, by the way, you're still French. :laugh:

                                        Oh no. Then I decided to do what any small, foreign-oil-loving guy would do: buy a Hummer. ;P
