Why?????


I like my "new" 2014 car. It was two models old when I bought it this past fall. It's ridiculously quiet, spunky, and appointed for a subcompact. Blows my old 1997 Escort away in every single way.

I love my smart phone. I can perform my trucking non-driving duties more efficiently with it.

It costs money to join modern times but proportionally speaking it's not more costly. A TV set back in your nostalgia days was a HUGE purchase most people couldn't afford for a while. Now you can get one with half a day's worth of wages.

Old stuff didn't last forever. If it did, it'd still be around. How many 1950s cars are driven daily outside of Cuba?

Exactly.
Hell your no fun that's like driving smart cars:laugh::roflmao::biglaugh:. nothing like the sound of a tuned engine with 10 inch strait pipes that's been properly tuned to give you 200 more HP and another 200 pond ft of torque:yahoo:
 
even if i had all the money from the upcoming Power Ball, i'd still not want those.

i'd have a huge shop, built and supplied to my specs, even have the most up to date spray booth, and restore or rebuild older cars, may not always up to full restoration, but close. much like Jay leno does,. but his shop fully restores to factory.

Some of the guys take that racing serious.....soak a lot of dough in them to play.

Haha I have toys too. It's not as balls to the wall as that but I put a few things on my S10. Magnaflow full exhaust, including high flow cat. Canned tuna, and some low profile 17" shoes. Custom tails, etc.

Canned tuna? :confused-96:
Haha people who custom tune their vehicles look down on the generic programmers and call them "canned tunes" so I took it a step further and called them "canned tuna."

The generic ones are for your vehicle's make, model, and engine but not YOUR specific vehicle via a Dyno. Still helps though. I bought the Hypertech for my S-10 and it has a premium octane setting that I don't exactly know what gets changed, plus tire diameter for keeping the Speedo accurate, adjusting shift firmness and shift points, etc.

It changed my truck from that typical Chevy pushing-a-wall-of-air feel to a sprightly little pickup.

i always like the S-10, but was disappointed it still had the old steering system, over rack and pinion which is why i went with a ranger.

to bad ford said screw it and put diesel engines in the ranger and sent it to australia because they didn't want to comply to the us safety standards.. that was a great truck and you could drive it into the ground
