Ahhhh...VERY nice, Sixty8! CONGRATULATIONS on the newest addition to your family! Friends of ours in Big Sandy TN have a cinnamon brown '79 Cadillac Sedan DeVille ... simply awesome car . I've driven it a few times ... and hope to drive it again this year when I visit them.

*chuckles* The horn of my '81 MC SC died right before my parents sold it to me.... They had it replaced ... now, it sounds STRONGER than the original one ... thank goodness ... he he!

*nods* Given the differences of what people see in their area, I would, too. Course ... all of these anecdotal sharings just re-emphasize that "perception is reality"..... *chuckles* When I was younger ... on family road trips, I'd spend an afternoon or so making a game of Ford vs. Chevy, Chevy vs. Dodge, Dodge vs. Ford ... in counting the cars I saw on the other side of the highway.... It was weird how in one stretch of road, one make seemed to blast the other ... then just be the opposite on the next stretch of road.....

He he ... that's AWESOME! BTW, in the opening pics, a 1st Gen Monte Carlo is included ... but, I paused it at that point ... and found that the back window is a bit wider than it actually should be. ALMOST looks like it is actually another door.... Kind of like they took a FGMC ... and used the greenhouse of a 4-door Chevelle.....

Indeed! Things do change ... but that's life.

Wish a few companies would do this........ *nods* All too familiar........... Hrm. I like playing it safe, too, and, yeah, this is a bit off the topic of what you posted, but I sure as heck am NOT going to give up my road trips just because of my health issues. Too many people keep telling me that I shouldn't take my road trips, especially by myself, "in case something happens". But, ya know what, if it IS "my time to go" ... I don't really have any control over that.....

Hmmm...wonder if Nashville TN fills this bill, too? Funny thing is ... I've lived near Chicago nearly all of my life ... and HATE driving in that traffic ... and hate trying to navigate around the city. Yet, I get to TN, Nashville area in particular, and have no problem with the traffic OR navigating.....
