[DeTomaso] Useless DeTomaso fact of the day

On the Pantera, typically between the left taillight and the license plate
opening is the script "DeTomaso". On the right side is "Pantera". 
 
After watching my screensaver flip through thousands of DeTomaso photos for
hours on end yesterday during a particularly boring meeting I came to a
startling observation. The Pantera Si's don't. 
 
There isn't room for the script as the taillights appear to be much wider.
Most cars have nothing there. A German Si has "SI" between the license plate
opening and the taillight, a French car has the DeTomaso script in the upper
left corner of the rear decklid (??!!) and Pantera in the upper right
decklid. Most have nothing. 
 
There's your useless observation of the day. We now return you to your
regularly scheduled program.
