The last underpowered car I bought was a 1968 Dodge Monaco with a 318. I hated that particular car before it was stolen. But then it got returned all beat to crap, and I liked it even less. I had traded a 1963 390 Merc convertible on it. That merc was big and heavy, but still ran like a bear... The Dodge with a 318 ran more like a mouse..

Next to my current driver a 2008 Dodge SRT8, my favorite car was my 1976 Pontiac Grand Prix with a 455 and posi. It even had an electric sun roof and an 8 track in it...

No more underpowered cars for this dude..

If gas gets too expensive to drive my fun cars, I will move to a house on a big hill, and just coast them down ocassionaly for the "thrill".

By then it will be OK. I probably won't remember that I live at the top of the hill. So I dont need to worry about how to tget the cars back to the top. .
