[QUOTE="ddgermann, post: 116483, member: 3537"] Now that's a memory... My first job was working weekends for a farmer at 13-16. This guy lived about 10 miles from our farm. He gave me either a grain truck, 3/4 ton Chevy pick up or a 68 Caddy to drive home at night. Had lots of fun in the Caddy....472 engine with cruise control on a big dial you could crank and the car would kick down a gear and open right up...no little speed tweaks with this system. Freaking hilarious imagining having that system today. [ATTACH=full]12245[/ATTACH] Second job was a local ESSO gas station where gas was 23 cents a GALLON. :Woot: I used to freak out when the bikers on Harleys came in. They would carefully watch to make sure I didn't spill a drop on the tanks. Scared the hell out of me but they tipped better than anyone else. :Biggrin: So our kids are now safer with all the rules and instant communications..... we are so much better off now huh.... I think not. Yes cool thread.. [/QUOTE]
