The (Not So Good) Old Days |
|

Posted by JayZeeBMT on Tue Feb 8 10:28:20 2011 My friend up the block now has a restored 1977 Lincoln Town Car. This boat is almost 15 feet long bumper to bumper, and probably gets around 10 mpg. He is in his fifties, and waxes nostalgic for the '70s.Oh, yeah, American cars from the '70s...the ones where you stalled out just after merging onto the expressway, leaving you sitting there like a turtle in the path of an oncoming semi. The days when you wanted to accelerate, and your car thought about it for a few seconds while you pressed on the accelerator. OH, and let's not forget "vapor lock"...you'd be driving along normally one minute, then poof! your car would quit running, leaving you rolling with no power steering or brakes. The "good old days" of driving...NOT! |
