Re: When P/S was interesting.

Re: When P/S was interesting.
Reaching back a little further Cuda, Dart, Hornet, Gremlin, Challenger, Maverick (including a “taxi”), etc. Point being innovative ways to get the job done and drivers that could tell you exactly what the car did and what it needs...no computers. The Golden Age to be sure.
