   Funny, I get annoyed with post 2000 cars.  I'm quite irritated with my   
   2005 Hyundai Elantra.  I don't like the hydraulic clutch, power windows,   
   larger A-pillars, etc, etc.  I enjoy driving the '89 Olds wagon.  Can't   
   wait to fix my '75 Dodge Dart.  It needs a leaf spring replaced (Lord   
   knows how that broke), then it's back on the road.

   I live in Ohio, in a county with no emissions.  No car inspections   
   either; I love it!
