Mobility News Round-Up:

• Steve Saleen, yes Saleen Mustang, has been bamboozled by China for $800M.  It's another display of the communist regime's brazen belligerence.  

• It looks like Uber & Lyft will be putting California in their rearview mirrors.

• These two stories struck me as complete tech opposites and made me go, 'huh...'    

  • Tesla's involvement in the development of a smartwatch.  Why?  Dunno, but it sounds cool.

  • Boeing 747s are getting important computer updates with floppy disks.  How is that possible?

And, the 2020 Corvette I mentioned that was @ Martin Chevrolet.  That's gone - and I'm sad to say I was not the buyer.  But they're

taking orders for 2021's
