OK, I recall at a recent AAA baseball game my friend laughed and said my truck would be easy to find as it is the oldest in the parking lot - it was a 1989 Ford Ranger...and by golly he was right.
As I drive around California, (NORCAL) I notice than 198-anything is a real fluke to see on the road. The average car seems far newer than 10 years old...I would submit the majority appear to be 2000+
Yet, when I drove my 82 Mustang up to Vancouver, BC, I was amazed. My car blended in. Lots of 80s vehicles on the roads (especially trucks) and I even saw the same car I always see on my trips - a 79 pace car running down the roads in Burnaby.
Typical scene in Vancouver:
So, I suggest my hypothesis - there are no old cars on the road in Northern California but the fleet is at least 10 years older in Vancouver.
Anyone else feel alone while driving their 80's ride on the streets?
