I work at Intel, I'm at a site technology leadership conference where Craig spoke this morning. Right after his talk, he and I, along with a Fellow here who is an ex-Ford employee, walked out to the parking lot to check out his new Ford GT. White with blue stripe, a really impressive and imposing vehicle, engine clearly visible in the rear window, amazingly low-slung (about like a 914!). I saw a red one at the Phoenix auto show recently, but you don't get the real impact until you see one on the street. He loves it, but as you might expect, it's not a very practical vehicle - zero storage space, not even a glove compartment. If you have a breifcase and a passenger, your passenger will be holding the briefcase. He's got about 150 miles on it, and is planning on going to Bondurant when he gets the time.
You gotta love a technology leader whose idea of a commute car is a Ford GT! |
