Who Remembers?

[Auld Phart]

Intermission at the Drive-in

They still have one in Fayetteville, Arkanass...

They built one not far from my daughters place, but in my hometown there were 10-15, now only one.

At least there was one before I moved a decade ago

What things did you grow up with that are no longer around/in use?

That is the biggest thing I miss about cars. Next are water temp and oil pressure gauges.

All of my Jeep's have always had oil pressure gauges, water temp gauges, and tach's.

You've just been buying the wrong cars.

The hamburger drive-up's and the ice cream stands are what I miss the most.

McDonalds pretty much put them out of business.

It pretty much all is.If it weren't for the kid, I'd only go there for the one dollar large drink, with free refills..
