I’ve been “into” cars and trucks since a little kid.
And anyone who is observant, think about the % of 15-20-30+ year old vehicles you see as daily drivers vs, say 30 years ago.
How many 1990-2000 model vehicles on the road now vs 1960-1970 models back in 1990?
ALOT more
I still see a lot of old grain trucks running around harvest time from the 50's with original drive train. Still see old Ford and Chevy trucks from the 70's and 80's running around. While it might be fun to reminisce about old trucks very few would want to go back to those days. I enjoy going to old car shows but not so much owning one. Part of the fun about reminiscing is remembering fun times with family and friends that are no longer around.
To go back is like asking someone to give up their smartphone for a old black desk rotary dial phone (landline).
