FLCF's Past cars The fun ones I forgot i had a 1989 Ford Mustang wife's car too 1972 Ford Grand Torino GT Sport 351 Cleveland I did burn the engine up in it. 1973 AMC Javelin Wife's car 401 cubic inches V-8 married her for her car, LOL Mid life crisis car 1997 Mazda Miata 10th anniversarty edition Best handling car ever it could do these corners so well. perfect 50-50 weight distribution 1956 Mercury Custom 292 V-8 292 horspower my grandmother left me this car. It was a great car to look at had the low fender skirts, I dont know what I love more the way this guy can drive this Ariel Atom is unreal. Car & Driver are unreal watch him duel with a Corvette Z06. No sliding just great driving total control over this beast. Passing Porsches standing still.
The course is the Nurburgring Awesome to watch More on the Ariel Atom Idiots and Fails on the Nurburgring Makes me want to own a tow truck service. 7:40 watch who gets out of the car at 7:30

"1973 AMC Javelin Wife's car 401 cubic inches V-8"
Back then and even now, that's an unusual car. For every Javelin, there was probably 10 Camaros, 10 Mustangs and so on. AMC was not the peoples first choice when it came to performance cars. The thing is, depending on how it was equipped, it could hold its own and maybe then some. Plus, it was a looker....

Thomascat Here was my favorite car to drive that I owned the 1997 10 th Anniversary Edition Mazda Bose stereo. Bilstein Shocks torsion adjuster, Chrome wheels but that 6 speed transmission was the best. Love to put the top down It was a hard fit as I was tall for the car, A guy sold me it for a great price It had 1700 miles on it that was all The car was immaculate, I know cars as I was in the business leather and blue cloth seats inlaid It was a classic. I drove it and sold it years later it had 17000 miles on it I sold it for 4k more than I bought it for. I drove it for 4 years. Best driving car ever. Car and Driver ranked it among the best cars of all time. CLASSIC GREAT CAR wasn't the fastest but none handled like it NONE. www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a15143823/mazda-mx-5-miata-10th-anniversary-edition-short-take-road-test/

What are we going to brag about when everyone drives an EV? Size of the battery?

Where can I safely park my car for hours upon hours while it recharges? Coming or going streets of Newwark Or Chicago and its streets? Driver habits will change along with the technology changes. Smelly and grimmy gas stations will mostly be gone by 2050. Many older and bigger homes still have stand-alone large garages, another artifact from the days of the horse and buggy stables located behind the master's home. Safely parking a car in Newark NJ is a risky adventure. Auto theft is in 'overdrive' per this article in 2021. abc7ny.com/newark-car-theft-cars-stolen-crime/10615122/Recharging the same car in Newark NJ is less risky. There are dozens of recharging sites now open 24 hours a day. Go EV! evstationslocal.com/states/new-jersey/newark/ Good luck with the drive from CHI to Newark. If you use Interstate 80 (aka Lincoln Highway), the route is well-traveled and some miles have flexible tolls by the hour of the day.

Worried abut getting mugged while waiting for the recharge Carjacking is more likely, by youths that want to joy-ride with babes, or commit a felony and then burn the car. Muggings mostly probably happen when owners and passengers get in the thief's face. I'd walk away. No car is worth my life.
