Churning fresh butter for dinner after a long day of cultivating land on the prairie.

Having to take Hwy 90 to Biloxi because the interstate system was not complete.

Ponder this....there are almost zero kids in K-12 who were born in the 1900's. Only the scattered few kids who were held back and are seniors this year may have been born in 1999.

THIS.
Both parents were from Biloxi, and we took that trip often (as well as trips further eastward to Gulf Shores and Florida). It's like you can chart the history of the 70s by portions of I-10 opening up:
early 70s-- open only to just past state line (now Stennis exit with the welcome center). Had to take 90 through Waveland and Bay St. Louis
mid-70s -- open to Gulfport, then shortly after to Lorraine/Cowan Road (Power Plant exit).
mid/late 70s -- open to Biloxi, but I-110 only open to south shore of Back Bay.
late 70s -- open to just before Alabama State line (Alabama portion to Mobile had already opened)
late 80s (1987) - I-110 in Biloxi opened from Back Bay to beach/Hwy 90.
I also remember when they were building the I-10 Mobile Bay crossing bridge sometime in the late 70s, first time I rode on it was going to spring break in 1983.
Highway 90 along the beach in Mississippi is such a fun and picturesque drive. When I have time, I prefer to take that route for awhile rather than boring I-10.

RIDING IN THE BACK OF A PICK-UP TRUCK
As stated by several others, this was such a simple pleasure. Whether just riding around town on errands with the folks, or my favorite-- riding in the back from Hattiesburg down to Biloxi on Highway 49 (about an hour long trip), wind in my bushy long hair in the late 70s, this was a BLAST.

LOTS of those on the road and will be remaining on the road.
A better answer is, "Having to move the front seat forward in a 2-door car to get to the back seat".
I remember having to do this A LOT in the 70s and 80s-- Mercury Cougar, T-Bird, Dodge Mirada, Olds Toronado, Toyota Celica, Ford Elite.

Coupes have about gone the way of the dinosaur. About the only two door cars today with actual back seats of any consequence are sportier muscle cars (Mustang, Challenger, Camaro)
