Not exactly safe, though!vitanola said:HMMPFH!
I receive your meaning, OM. Modern cars are nearly trouble free, at least as compared with the old-timers. Even so, I drive antique. Drove a T Model in daily service all through university and then on another fifteen years, at which point I upgraded to a six-cylinder Buick. I've since gone through several other machines of 1920's vintage, and it appears that I am on my way back to the Ford car again.
These early machines are not unreliable if they have first been put into TOP mechanical condition and are maintained scrupulously. A half-hour each Saturday morning is usually enough time to handle all of the little adjustments. Of course these cars don't ride or brake like modern machines, that is a given, but are indeed drivable, if one is patient.
