No but I'm considering it, new cars are full of annoying shit and I'm not convinced they're any more reliable than old cars.

Reliability depends on how you define it. If you can fix something for $20 from vato zone in 15 minutes and be on your way every 10k people wouldn't care even if that part failed more frequently than a $1500 part that took the car down for a month every 100k.

I've learned to appreciate new cars for their durability and accept the downside of expensive parts / long downtime if it means the car is better at all other times.

I like being able to fix it myself with minimal effort. After several repairs I did using random shit from NAPA and Home Depot I found a lot of systems are more simple than people think, but if they're tied into other parts it requires lots of labour to remove and put back.

Old cars were more basic, ergo less shit under the hood. Each part was readily accessible too, less hassle to fix something. I also like being able to fix it in a pinch instead of calling a tow, waiting, getting a hotel because no mechanic is open on Saturday, etc.

I've been assfucked hard by new cars a bunch of times, yet the oldest car I ever owned never left me stranded even once (1991 Accord).

If I see a car older than 15 years I move right and let them pass. I don't want their shitbox anywhere near me. They also usually drive like maniacs because they know their shitbox has no value therefore they don't care about dinging it. I had some old ass man with his ancient truck slam his door into mine right in my face at a shopping center and he just turned at me and said "don't worry it's just some paint" like fuck you man, you put a dent in my door and chipped it.

Eventually shit just happens. I'm still very much a shut in sperg. I'm just really good looking (legit 7/8 of 10) and can communicate 1 on 1 really well but shit the bed entirely with out of context or group interactions.

Did the online thing where it was set up from the go where I knew it was a date and she was interested which made it as easy as any other 1 on 1 convos I've had.

Yes, best purchase I made for 12k a few years ago. I'm never selling it, beats any of the other cars I've driven so far.

It's not fast, but on the twisties it's quick, and it's very engaging to drive.

At 30k it's a hard sell, then I'd rather get a Cayman or something.

>Do you daily a 60 year car?
No, but I did drive a variety them when they were only 15-40 years old in South Texas which generally has fairly mild, albeit hot, weather.

What I've learned was that there's nothing an old car can do that a newer car can't do far better other than be Cool. And that's quite enough. If I still lived down there where my social network is I'd have yet another 67-68 Mustang as a daily but I don't here in the frozen North (just above the Mason-Dixon) so I'm stuck with a modern Challenger and a shitbox suv for work/bad weather. FWIW, after '69 or so cars started developing a much more modern feel, it's amazing how much the Challenger reminds me of my 70 Mach 1 by the view from the inside, so if you want the more "classic" feel you'll want 68 or older.

Oh, another thing. Older cars are far better at keeping the sun off you than modern cars which keeps you cooler than you'd think, though still hot of course. I could be out in the day in one of my 60's cars down there but would refuse to leave the house until dark if all I had was a modern car with their 10ft of dashboard and no a/c.

Not entirely true. Nu-cars for instance have worse outward visibility and usually worse body geometry (including, but not limited to bloated front ends). Even 20 year old cars were better in these regards.

I mean I get away with a lot more sperg behavior but it's stuff I know is spergy and I just feel like doing it anyway. You could not do that and it wouldn't be held against you as a 5 or 6/10. Ie I can harass women at work and they'll never cry about it but none of the other dudes here would ever dream of it.

Youre not a 5/10 unless you're fit, dress well, shave everyday, have w clean haircut, etc. I think most people just don't realize they're 2-3s and shoot for the moon.

>Dating apps
I used eHarmony. "Dating" apps are for sex from what I've seen. That's not stuff based on establishing s relationship. My big thing would be to never lie about your interest. If someone asks what you're doing and it's going to a hitler rally you should say that so they either accept who you are or move on desu. You can't hide weird shit and then expect a normal person to accept it later on.

In grad school (2010) I had to use my Triumph TR3a all winter, because my girlfriend needed my honda and we were poor. It was awful, dry gas starts every morning, full gloves jacket hat even with heater blasting... scary to drive in snow.. it fucking sucked.

Guys/gals... don't suffer for pussy. There's better out there, with a nice car.
