That's how I like them - 10 to 20 twenty year old Detroit, dinged up with rust spots. Befriend a jackleg mechanic or two, never drive anyplace you wouldn't be ready to hitch hike home.

Of course I'm eleven years into ER, have a 'bought new' 1999 Silverado sitting in the front courtesy some screaming and yelling from the SO -"your not going to take it with you" and a few other catchy phrases.

My daily driver is a 200,000 mile 1994 GMC 4 banger Sonoma - free from Step Daughter in spare room and I have a free 1992 Geo Storm (not running) to keep my jackleg buddies occupied since I'm not too mechanically inclined.

Like recyling dryer sheets - it's an acquired taste.

Heh, heh, heh - to each his own.

P.S. - Dickies coveralls and a Golden Retriever go well with my driving set-up.
