Burky, take it easy on the boy. What you are saying is true, but I understand where he's coming from. He just longs for a time from the past that he thinks was better than today, because he never got to see how things were, and to decide for himself whether to keep what he has or to change to something current.

It's kind of like shaving with a straight razor, as opposed to an electric shaver. I use a straight razor, even though those were common before I was born. I wanted to try it, and decide for myself whether I wanted to shave with a blade. I saw no reason to simply dismiss that as "archaic" just because no one else happened to be doing it, or because other people might have regarded that as "archaic". It works well for me. You just need to keep it sharp.

Okay, that may not be the best analogy. But perhaps our young buck here simply likes trucks of that vintage so he can be like his dad or some other relative who may have drove those for living, so he can attempt to experience what it may have been like in their hey-day. I went through a similar phase with old chevy pickups. I was partial to the 1967-72 body style.

Actully, it's a very apt analogy. Several times reading this young child's posts, I had visions of the things I could accomplish if i had access to him and a straight razor in my hands.....

I just live a 14 year old who calls adult's 'Boy". It reflects so nicely on their upbringing and the way that their parents raised them.

I will be so happy when xmas vacation is over and he goes back to school.

And you actually considered that worthy of notice on an internet forum? Now had we been in person talking, I might have a problem with that. But in this venue, someone like that could be easily dismissed as just another weirdo.
