this is what happens when we don't drive these old cars regularly. When I had my '68 Charger R/T, it was my dailey. It took me 5 hours one way to Kentucky, and 7 to Michigan without thought. Now that my road runner is done, the world has changed. It's not just a 10 year old car, I am more picky where I drive it, so it doesn't get driven as much. But I drive my '81 D150 dailey, so the '69 isn't as much of a change, and I prefer the two older ones to driving the wife's 2015 Journey.
