Subject:Re: It runs in the family?

My first thought on reading the original post (Model T Ford vs old gee-gee)
was "Ten years? How long does a horse live for?" (I don't know, y'see...).
All that I know is that there are quite a few 1912 Model Ts still pottering
around, and how many horses from that year? Don't all shout at once. All
that I know is that a 1912-vintage horse ain't going to win a race or plough
a field.. ;-).
