It has air bags, my first truck didn’t and I drove like a moron. Well like a 16 yr old. I am still here.
But cell phones weren't available back then to distract you while driving. That's why I survived with no power steering or brakes. Many of today's fatal accidents are caused by distracted driving.

I had that 8 track, 2 radio shack amplifiers, 8 pioneer speakers, and over 100- 8 tracks. Guess that's why I am deaf now and wear hearing aids.

Who remembers doing this? Some of my best memories were driving around with a car full of friends and no place to go. Gas was around $0.75/gal and you could drive for hours doing absolutely nothing and still have fun!
