Best Friend's daddy (still friends) in elem school had a Buick (Da Bweek) in a lighter green (mint?) , otherwise same same. It could get any number of kids smooshed into it to road-trip to the City Swimming Pool. XD And return us, sticky with ice cream and Coppertone, sunburn and all, 4 or so hours later. It's capacity was limitless. :)
If you were to factor in the conditions necessary to create fossil fuels, both oil and coal would be a million dollars per unit. Instead the govts if the world force down prices by various means. Including war.
In the end they won't argue that they're not able to save the place. The will just point out how they did it so cheaply for us
My first car was a 1961 Olds Super 88, land barge with rocket ship styling, 396 cu.in, 10:1compression ratio. It couldn't live in a world without leaded premium gas.
What this was really about was during the election last year, I remember reading a story about how some OPEC nations, specifically the Saudis, were intentionally trying to spike oil prices to help the GOP with the election. It certainly makes it a lot harder for them to do things like that, when Biden (or any Dem pres), could just release oil from the reserves.
Sidenote: I wish many of the people who vote GOP, would consider why they're supporting the same candidates that every country who hates America, also supports.
My brothers, sister and I fought over it, it was the longest distance "seating" away from our parents, so when we misbehaved they couldn't reach far enough to give us a good slap.
It must have run in the family. I was sitting next to my Uncle Bob while he was driving, his five year old daughter in the back seat was directly behind him. She was nonstop whining about something, and Uncle Bob said through gritted teeth, "God, I HATE a whiner!" and nailed her without even turning around. Whining was replaced by shrieks, and I didn't move a muscle during the rest of the ride.
Nice memory. But OUR station wagon (remember that term?) had portholes!Fake ones of course, on the side of the car near the back, we kids thought that was beyond cool. Stuck our fingers in them constantly.
Awesome cool. All my life I've told people our cars in the 70's were so big we could paint them haze grey and launch planes off of them. Nice to see that joke employed here. Just as it is said there are only 7 original stories I suspect there are only 7 original jokes.
My folks had one just like that in white. I learned to drive in my dads Mercury Comet, a nice small copy of the Ford Maverick. After that, driving that Vista Cruiser was like piloting the Queen Mary. And nothing said cool car for a date than that beast, comolete with awesome AM radio
lol, that's what we called it too.

It is the oil and gas companies that throttle production in order to keep prices and profits artificially high.

And they could fly, too!

look, penis replacements are a way to virtue signal how unwoke you are, ok, don't mess with the system
Love it! Seatbelts? What seatbelts?
Lots of room for groping and necking.
Oh, no, you're wrong. Before Trump's tax cut, they promised to pay their employees more.
Fake wood on the side of "station wagons!"
My new (2017, recommended as the one of the best used cars by Consumer Reports) Honda EX CRV has REAL wood trim inside.
Only 25 thousand miles because it was leased, and the dealer did all the maintenance. I'm a lucky girl!
