IF you want it so much, go buy yourself a classic car. Prices vary by condition and popularity.

4 doors are cheaper, convertibles are expensive, rare is expensive, rusty is cheap, base vehicles are cheaper than “top of the line”, but you already said you don’t want all the gimmicks.

I LOVE my Durango Citadel. It has every option that was available.

My headlights come on and off by themselves (wipers too). The high beams come on and off by themselves, never mind that floor mounted dimmer switch that always corroded.

GPS, adaptive cruise control (autopilot), power EVERYTHING!, best sound system in any vehicle anywhere!, best suspension in any car I ever had (no side leaning), 8 speed automatic transmission, (manual paddle shifting if you want to), and on and on.

You can have the “old” cars. You know the ones that the steering column became a spear through your chest in a severe crash. The ones where in a crash all the doors flew open and all the people were ejected because seat belts weren’t available yet.

While you’re at it, bring back TUBE type tires and vacuum windshield wipers.

Remember ashtrays, even in the rear seat arm reasts and *full size* spares?
