Man, I remember back when custom stereos were really popular. Almost everyone had some sort of variation of the detachable face stereos in their car.

Also, you forgot to add manually having to lock all the doors.

I still have to tell that to my friends when I drive them somewhere, they keep forgetting that I have such an old car. My girlfriend is the only person who locks her door every time. The moment I saw her doing that for the first time without me having to telling her even tho it was just the second time ever I drove her somewhere, I knew ... she is the one.

The real romance story is always in the comments.

All of this is still my reality. I got my first car a year ago for €100. It drives me to work every day. :) Love my baby, he is doing a good job even with no automatic windows, no AC, no remote key and all that stuff. My Custom radio has Bluetooth, what do you want more?

I still do. Bought a heavily used base model piece of shit SUV for $12,000 couple years ago thanks to the shitty economy and its manual everything.

Yeah, back when factory stereos were utter garbage with no CD players, no mp3 support, no Bluetooth, and in my case, not even a fucking cassette player.

Or when you needed them for the preamp outs for the amp and custom speakers in your system
