My 1917 Hupmobile going on a 100 mile drive with firends ,30 of which was up a mountain on dirt
awesome car, green motoring at its best, please keep using it

My daily is a 1995 Toyota 4Runner, not old compared to 50's cars

I think the sweet spot for usable old cars are from the 80's and early 90's, easy on maintenance, not full of unfriendly DIY electrical systems and with enough performance/comfort to keep up with modern traffic
