    Never would have guessed a couple of dinky domestic cars are in the budget? What do you think those aircraft cost to build and maintain? LOL!

    It'd be cheaper to buy and crash a couple dozen Ferraris than fly that aircraft for a year.

    A few months ago, Fox5 here did a story about the chase cars. They featured the white G8 and they had a vid of the U2 landing and out of the right side of the screen popped the 05 MBM goat haulin @$$.

    the operating costs for one day probably costs more then those cars are worth.

    The plane in the video is a U2 spy plane. The plane first flew in 1956 it cost 1 mill to build the plane. It has a fuel capacity of 2,950 gallons. It can go 7,000+ miles on that tank full so what 2.37 mpg. Max speed is 410 mph but tend to crusie in the 350 mph range. The U2 can fly for 12 hours before a refuel. JP4 cost 5.80 a gallon right now iirc.. So what just over 17k to fill the tank.


    Enzo Ferrari price 670,000 when bought from Ferrari. They tend to sell for 1 mill now. They get 7 mpg city and 13 mpg highway... Put the same amout of gallons in the Ferrari what thats 8k +.....

    They have been chasing U2's with cars like that for years.

    If you were talking the B2,F-117,F23 any of the new aircraft hell yes I agree...

    They're just standard B4C cars, nothing too special. Same LS1 engine as any other F body, no top speed limiter.
