Well, all motion is relative so it really depends on your point of view.

I think they call it warp speed

Well the horse is clearly easier to market and makes a cool logo.

Neither is calibrated or equivalent

This is in homage to the flight cockpit it is designed to mimic. Its the same reason that there are flip up toggle switches below the touch screen.

Instant this throwback to the P-51 Mustangs because they took design elements from it or something?
Introduced in the Mach 1 in the 1960s

It is and it isn't.
GPS can measure speed/velocity and display it different references or units. It's a tool to measure, not the unit or datum itself.
Saying GPS speed is kinda like saying ruler length.
We do often say it out of habit though to compare it to air speed or boat speed which are the speed of the vessel moving through air or water that is also moving.

GPS measures position and therefore speed three dimensionally as long as it has at least 4 satellites or combination of references.
It's just a matter of what you want displayed. Modern units can do SOG or 3 dimensional speed.

They could have kept going with that. A Ford Avenger or Ford Spitfire would be pretty neat.
Ford Hurricane? Ford Tomcat.
Oh wait, they do have the Ford Raptor.

If you use navigation apps like Waze, Google Maps, or a dedicated unit like a Garmin, they typically have an option to tell you your speed. Sometimes they tell you the speed limit of the road you are on too so you can easily tell by how many mph you are breaking the law lol.

Found the other account 😂
People get so offended on jokes about the stuff they buy because they identify with items. It’s late stage capitalism in a nutshell.
And last time I checked my first comment still has upvotes so they sided with me. Thanks for pointing that out.

Me and my family have an ongoing argumejt about this lol
I claim as you do but they say why is there a hose on the logo and what’s the plane named after
I’m taking solace that I’m not the only one who says this

On a flat track it’s more precise. Older speedos, due to the way they measure, get more imprecise as speed increases.

"Success" my ass. He blocked you because he was fed up with your obnoxious shit, just like anyone else would be. And the downvotes on all your comments/upvotes on theirs prove who everyone else is siding with.

Speed over ground would make the most sense
