[Excaliber]

In all the examples you sighted above, cobraviper, no doubt there were many people who at the time of battle DID in fact abandon the car in question. Out of disgust for the 'man'. As it should be, it sends a message, heros are hard to come by. Interesting group of people to associate Shelby with I might add, fitting, very fitting. The cars survive, the people associated with the cars remain tarnished to varying degrees. Shelby fits well within that group, on a moral and a car building level. I'm not perplexed at all, it's just Shelby history repeating itself.
