Creator's Key Takeaways

this drives nicer than almost any 80s car that I've driven so far in my you know 36 years of existence

so far everything's been very uneventful with both of these cars which I thought this one would have some issues

the only one that's given us a real issue so far is the truck which has a brand new alternator on it

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check for bad ground wires when dealing with alternator issues
Ensure trailer straps are tightened before long trips
Verify all lights and signals are working before departing
