For every day bennelson doesn't tell us what the hybrid is, he has to buy me a gallon of gas.

It's not a donkey, it's a mule - which is a hybrid between a donkey and a horse, of course. And standing in the snow means it's pretty cool :-) |

Well...10:45 p.m. local time, September 23 2012, and I'm done in. I'll check back in the morning. If nothing by then, I'll be waiting silently( on this thread only, none of Ben's or anyone elses other threads, just this one) until fruition.
Y'all do as you like.
Ben- you are still Aces in my book and I look forward to to hearing about this new hybrid and the " rest of the story".

24th here. Maybe we should PM Ben, instead of talking about it here?

I dont know what the big deal is. When you finally see it you will say thats neat and move one. Maybe 2 people on this whole forum may buy one, but its nothing to loose sleep over. Like Ive said I worked for Baker Equipment who made the electric postal vans in 2000 and it was nothing to loose sleep over or taunt people about.

Nobody here will ever own one of these. Think bigger (yes, bigger than the train).
A lot of people probably don't even know things like this even exist.
Anyway, I emailed Ben to poke him about this thread.
