    I'm about to be 28. I thought that if that number was tenths that there would be another digit. I have never owned a vehicle that old.

    It's all good I just really love the body design of the old pickups, mainly the round headlights. '79 to '83 I think is my favorite.

    Yeah probably not. I remember having to open the hood and shove a screwdriver in the choke to get my camaro to run in cold weather until it warmed up.
