Re: [FWDLK] HOW MANY ARE LEFT?

[Garrett <TheBulkster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I've read in a couple places that a
rather generic way to determine how many cars may be left is to simply
assume only 10% of the cars are still in existence...I imagine it works out
pretty close for some cars, but is likely way off for many others.

If you had a time machine, you could always go back in time and put tracking
devices on each car as they rolled off the line....when you wanted to see
how many were left, just start hunting down the tracking signals...just need
to round up a Delorean, a flux capacitor, and some plutonium....would movies
ever lie?
