And you had to replace just about the entire ignition system in your car every 12000 miles, brakes every 10-12000, tires might last 15,000, cars rarely made it past 90,000, houses were drafty, air travel was slow, not every house was air conditioned, tv remote was a clicker, and on and on. Some things were great, some things not.
If only I had bought a half dozen drop top hemi cudas.....
