I'm sitting here in Paris TX with way too much time on my hands. Sooo, I calculated out that if you took all the Falcons built in 1970 (sedans and wagons) and put them bumper to bumper you would drive 43.1 miles before you passed all of 'em. If you took all the Mavericks built in 1970 (578,914) you would drive 1635.5 miles. That sure puts it in perspective!

This is the problem with many of the new threads on City Data.

Now calculate how much longer they would be at 100 degrees F. as opposed to 32 degrees F. That ought to keep ya busy for awhile!

And from Paris TX, the number of miles listed will put you where? (Still with too much time on your hands...)

that would actually require a map and a compass, and the ability to read the map legend.

OP, next time you are sitting in paris, tx. and have the thought of creating a thread like this, take a drive due south from paris, tx the length of those mavericks, and see if you can find the the oil well the mexicans had that blew out in the 70s(i think).

All I know is that if you laid all the college girls I knew end to end I wouldn't be a bit surprised.
