I might be so old but I still remember the stench in the restroom at the drive in movie in the 60's.

I'm so old I remember when prices of new cars were not jacked up so they could send you a rebate that you had paid for.

I remember when Ralph Nader caused huge increases in the cost of vehicle prices. He was appointed and not elected.

I'm so old I remember my FIL buying a brand new Ford Galaxie 500 for $2700. Google didn't know how to spell Galaxie even.

Didn't he write "Unsafe at any speed" in reference to the Chevy Corvair? I road once in one and thought I was going to die in it. The driver went to pass a slow moving vehicle on a two lane road and it stalled at 55mph.... Because it crossed a bump in the road.

It was written by Ralph Nader.

I had an uncle that was really proud of his Corvair and its ability to float because of the sealed floor.

My parents' first home, my first home as an infant, cost them a whopping $6K ... brand new!

Today, you'd have to pay that much just to rent ... probably every month!
