    Show us your vehicles

    I had a 79 Silverado back in the early 90s. It was a nice truck, the previous owner peaced it together out of several junkyard trucks, so it had all the bells and whistles.

    One of the great things about the 50s and 60s that is missing today was all the different genres you could hear on the top 40 stations. Tis disappeared by the 80s, such a shame!
