Those Beetles were great!

Yeah, they were great. I really thought so when I had to push one out of my way to get my Ford Station wagon out of my driveway. There was only 21 inches of new snow. After pushing him for about five blocks, I had to leave him so I could continue to work.

I had more weight on my REAR driving wheels than he weighed. PS; I still drive a rear wheel drive car. the latest is a 2009 Mustang GT. For two years I drove it 189 miles a day round trip over hilly, twisty snow and ice covered roads to get to work. Rain, snow, ice, 90 degree heat, never missed a day's work. Retired now. Love it, if I ever get any time to myself. Might have to go back to work so I can rest LOL

Retired here, as well, and I also love it because of the tremendous reduction of stress in managing a large department at a major defense contractor.

I’ve always lusted for and wanted a sporty Mustang, since it was first introduced. Didn’t care for the fastback look, but like the others. ...Probably doesn’t fit this 71 y/o with a gray beard and unkempt brown hair now, but really still want to have one of the newer models. ....Probabally would just get me in trouble. Former owner of a 280ZX T-top 5-speed, but now drive an Impala LS 3800 sedan, like an oldster.
