And could count on your car to damn sure not last 150k miles.

These days not getting 300k trouble free miles is a problem. Old cars sucked. They were steaming hunks of shite by every measure compared to modern cars.

Yep, most all of the things the old guys are wanting in this thread sucked. Dunno how many times growing up we had to change belts kn the washer and dryer.

Cars were lucky to get 100k maintenance free, really lucky.


I'm not young, in late 30s but the revisionist history of shite drives me nuts. Products sucked back then.

Same kind of people who complain you can't raise a family on a blue collar job anymore and single income... well no shite if you try and live likes its 2020, its gonna cost you. Live like its 1985 if you want that shite.
