It's crazy to me that I have to order a brake hose with several day's lead time for a platform made until 1988. The eighteen year old at the counter in autozone asked me for additional information, "And, who made the Cutlass?" I feels unreal that the Olds brand was retired 20 years ago, and this boy, no older than my oldest son, likely wouldn't recognize an aurora, let alone a cutlass. Another young man saw me whipping the monte carlo around the parking lot at the taco joint, and commented in surprise, "wow, it handles like a modern car!" To which I replied, yes, it is a modern car, it just lacks airbags and has ashtrays and the wipers suck, but shocks, tires, and swaybars and it handles. In fact, "not handling" AKA driving like a sofa with highly boosted steering was highly regarded when it was new. The eyes glaze over - few understand why I like these old sh1tboxesYeah sad, but quality today isn't what it used to be.
