Gas was about $.35 a gallon then, but all things are relative.Well, I am pretty sure that you weren't paying $5.00 a gallon for gas.

It's funny there were no cupholders and nobody seemed to care then.2 years older & started in a 1959 Ford Fairlane. I seem to recall there were no cupholders & the most important feature - especially on Friday nights - was the front bench seat.
It’s because back then most families ate at home and weren’t gorging themselves with Big Macs, quarter pounders, and 64oz Coca-Cola’s.It's funny there were no cupholders and nobody seemed to care then.

This is the first I heard about bending = leaking being main recall focus. Interesting..
Exactly.Allowing every American to own a home, car, iphone, computer, gaming system, latest kitchen appliances, and all was at the expense of millions of American jobs. We moved our manufacturing, almost all of it, first to Japan, then Korea and Singapore and Thailand, and in the last 20 years, To China. In 1930 or 1950 or 1970 Americans didn't live so luxuriously on minimum wage or slightly higher as we do today.
Look at this old Popular Science from 100 years ago. Peruse the ads, recognize the company names now long gone. Find other US companies you never knew of. Now think about every one of those companies was giving an American a job, forming the 20th century Middle Class. Building communities, towns, sports teams. All American companies, all hiring and selling to Americans. All the profits went to an American company, many of whom built company stores, parks, libraries. All that is over. Today we have our very likely enemy of the final war getting all the profits, and boosting their own populace' standard of living, that 25 years ago was picking rice, into the information age. At OUR expense, so everyone could buy a $20 pair of jeans, a $11 tool at Harbor Freight, a $350 big screen TV.
