Well I know I am older than you. I was in my senior year of HS. I was in US History and they made an announcement over the school intercom

Wow, I'm really going to date myself saying this...

My first brand new car was a '76 Pontiac Sunbird and I paid cash for it... $2500. Terrible car that I traded in for a '79 Trans Am. Traded that in for my first Honda... an '84 CRX. Traded that in for an '87 Integra.

I just wanted to make a shout out to the people on this forum.

Specifically, @arpypat , @cafecito820 , @mjchristian , @charleswrivers , @gtman , and @JDMpo0kie

Whether it be thru fast, honest, and straight forward sales transactions ... or simply taking a moment to reach out thru a PM, regarding a comment I had made about an upcoming trip.

These folks (and many many other folks that I have watched on this forum) give countless and priceless bits of advice, and conduct themselves in the very highest levels of honesty and fairness, when selling parts that they are upgrading.

I can't vouch for EVERYONE on this forum, but I can say that I have been blown away by the level of community demonstrated by the people that make up this forum.

Thank you, forum members, for everything you contribute!
I've seen those guys give so much quality advice all over different threads it's insane. The entire forum would be lower quality if those guys weren't here.

I was 8 years old and would not be getting anywhere near a DL until 1984, so you definitely are my elder

AARP gets sent to the outside trash can as soon as it comes out of the mailbox ... it never even gets to see my foyer!

Don't worry, I am getting those as well. And I'm 51. They are trying to snag me a little early

I was a Senior, sitting in my Psychology class ... my girlfriend (now my wife) was sitting in the seat in front of me ... and the announced the Shuttle Explosion was announced over the school PA system.
Our teacher turned on the CCTV, and we all watched in horror and shock.

As for computers ... TRS 80, with cassette storage, was what I was most familiar with!

Mine had the 231 V6 which I think was actually a Buick engine.

Rocking monochrome and weeping if you accidentally hit the break button and it knocked you out of your program by ending the basic program that had been running.
