Took the 'ol wagon out for a little cruise today while the rest of the family was off doing wedding rehearsal stuff.
I came to realize that it's going to be tough to really ever get anything done to it because I just enjoy driving it so much
Sure, i would like to get the drivetrain swap done, and paint it, and replace the interior panels I have for it, but all of these would require putting the car out of service for a while. I happen to be lucky enough to live where I can pretty much daily it year around, although on REALLY rainy days it stays home (2 miles of gravel/dirt road).
I guess the only real solution is to buy another G body to daily, so some of the others can get built? I have the opportunity to drive a lot of newer stuff at work, and frankly, l have no real interest in anything built in the last 20 years. Too much sloppy design and too expensive for commuter use. I don't need or care about heated seats, navigation, leather seats, butt warmers, touchscreens, bluetooth, heated/cooled consoles, or impressing the neighbors.
I know lots of members daily newer stuff, but I just can't wrap my brain around it.
Is this what getting old is all about?
