I'm with Bruce. Keep me standard transmission, 4WD where you get out and lock in the hubs, windows that you roll down yourself, and ignition keys that don't talk to you. All the fancy shit now adays is just that much more to go wrong. And my fav song is still "Sugar Magnolia" - jumps like a Willy's in 4 WD!

I never really thought of generations moving along that quickly. Im thinking your generations procreated while on the youngish side.

@Bruce -

I see...it was a mental block on my part.

I'm childless, but if I had had one at 20, and then they had one when they turned 20, their child would be getting their drivers license right about now. Its hard to think of my age in those terms....

Im getting old...
