Great article on owning a muscle car

I also disagree with some of the article, but also totally agree with some of it.
For one, I don't own a classic Mopar so it can sit in the garage hiding it's paint and body from real life because I don't own classic cars to retain a retail value.
I own them to drive the **** out of them until they are too far gone to be worth driving, and when that happens I would like to just find another one to fix up and drive the **** out of that one too.

The safety concerns in the designs are obvious and part of the deal.
As far as horsepower being dangerous, as already said is all in the driver and the ability to make driving decisions based on what the vehicle AND it's driver is capable of.
(which a lot of people can't do these days)
Most of the people I see driving these days would bury a 400hp car into something in the first 5 minutes of driving if they actually used the power they had.
Most of them don't even know which way their wheels are pointing unless the car is rolling.
You see it all the time when someone pulls out from a side street and has to correct to stay in their own lane. (or sometimes don't stay in it)
You see over and under corrections all the time, and there is no room for that if you are actually using the horsepower available. (especially true with rear wheel drive)
The streets are just filled to the brim with steering wheel turners that don't have a clue how to actually drive.

Now if I had a late 60's all numbers matching darn near perfect big block Roadrunner again, it would change the story a bit and I would have to agree with (most) of what the article says about weather protection, insurance and maintenance.
It would also be a "dangerous" car with the wrong feet on the pedals.
Wouldn't be a daily driver though either.
