You nailed it!
This pic was from our last trip down south in April 2019 on I75 just north of Knoxville but definitely fits in this thread.
Happy Friday everyone. Here's a throwback. I think it's @1986 Accord sedan? I've seen another parked recently, but I can't remember the last time I saw a sedan driving.
And if my memory is right, that 1980's gm abomination, *excuse me*, innovative design and styling, gives me terrible thoughts to the hubcap keys/tool of that era
In reply to tremm :
What is amazing is that it's a carbureted car.
The Accords had issues with the fuel filler rusting and putting a bunch of debris in the fuel tank. EFI cars had a filter screen that kept the crud mostly out of the fuel system. Carbureted cars did not.
This was also back from when we didn't dare lift a Japanese car over four years old by its jacking points. Japanese rust prevention has come a long way in the past ten years.

I literally stepped into a puddle because I was looking at those cars this past October when we were trick or treating in town with the kids.

Forgot you moved over there, my tax advisor is there
No pic because driving, but I saw a damn solid-looking driver Datsun 510 cruising up I-95 this morning. Silver or grey; can't remember if it was a 2-door or 4-door. They got off at the exit I usually take for work, too, but I was going elsewhere. Maybe I'll see it again.
I saw one of these, but didn't have my phone out. A Chevy Captiva, didn't even know they existed. Looked worse in person.
Captiva...reselling of the rebadged Gen2 Saturn Vue to US car rental companies only who then in turn,launched them onto the used market a year later.
Yikes, I didn't realize the old meme, "GM- because someone has to build rental cars" was so literal.
Saw the ad on craigslist and thought it looked like a place I knew, turns out to be a block from my in-laws new house.
