I loved our Olds Super 88 Holiday, monster 4 barrel carb and 4 speed automatic. At 70 mph you floor it and it shifts into "passing gear" and you hear those 2 large barrels sucking air as it plants you deep into the seats. :) It's even more impressive if you consider how much it weighs.

Forgot to mention, the Montgomery Ward microwave we got in 1963 just died. Cost 400$ in those days. The new LG is much bigger, more powerful, uses less energy, huge dish rotates, we love it. My inflation calculator says that the 400$ price is now $4,245.75. Out the door at Home Depot for 2K $ the LG is actually 1/2 price. :)

Love their batteries. Used Durascells for long time now they start leaking years before the date code. I was taking everything using these batts apart inspecting for leakage 3 tomes a year. Then noticed that anything I get that comes with AA or AAA batteries never leak. Just looking at the construction shows marked differences. I get the Panasonic platinum power batteries from Home Depot almost as cheap as Coppertops from Costco. :)

I dislike the upper management of WF. But I really like the people in my local branch. I do not use the ATM, the tellers call me by name and I got a really big safe deposit box added, now have 2 at a large discount. Swap one of the two 8T Seagate Ironwolf Pros every 2 or 3 weeks. No off site back-up means really no back-up. Am very happy with my local branch, not looking to switch. YMMV :)
