True to an extent. Easier to DIY with the work but some parts are gonna be hard to find, depending on how old and what it is. If its got a Chevy 350 you bet they're still making parts. A Chrysler 340? might be harder to find.
agreed. i would stay with a popular make like jeep, bronco, even a willys. then upgrade the running gear just before the computer crap. 302, 350, etc.

at least you got change back. but your right todays simple math is like law of physic equation. the grocery store are the worst. i've seen the cashier finger count behind the back.
I used to try and make things easier for drive through people (both with the math and dealing with coins) by giving them the change amount (say it was 17.65, I'd give them 20.65, simple to figure 3.00 back). But I found that more often than not, that confused them even more. I'd get 0.35 back in coins and some bills that were either a dollar over or a dollar under what I was supposed to get. I TRIED giving the extra dollar back once and I thought the kid was going to short circuit. My wife told me it's because they likely already punched in $20.00 and the register was telling them what change to give me, and I put a wrench in their process by adding the 0.65 to it. So much for trying to be nice.

Why do they need trackers in bras when they know we all carry a phone with built in GPS?
Because bras and their contents are far more interesting than your phone, c'mon man! Follow the science!
