whatever dude, this couldn't be further from the truth. I drive my original 40 year old drum brake V8 car every single day , and I enjoy the hell out of it, winter , spring , summer and fall. it is an extremely pleasant and reliable car to drive. it has never left me stranded and cruises right on down the road..... oh , and the heat kicks ***
