I very rarely see these 80's or early 90's model vehicles on the road anymore. Do you ever see them?

A few I can think of are. Chevy Beretta, Pontiac Grand Am, Ford Tempo, Ford probe.. I loved Ford Probes. (My boyfriend bought a probe after I pointed them out and it was so comfortable and seemed so sleek at the time) lol

They would be more than 30 years old so it’s not worth it to keep them fixed up after so many years.

@cherokeepatti Where I live any vehicle over 20 years old is considered an antique. When my uncle died his truck was considered an antique. It had 2000 miles on it. The tires and battery were original.

@hippyjoe1955 He didn’t get out much did he? I knew a guy with a 20-year old Pontiac that he bought in high school. He kept it patched up but the body had started to rust. By this time he was married with a baby. His gas tank started leaking and he was talking in the break room on how to fix it. I told him if he patched it then it would probably leak somewhere else. And if he got into an accident with his baby strapped in the car seat in the back seat of the car it could very catch on fire in a wreck and he might not have time to get the baby out. He got a serious look on his face. When he got his income taxes back he used it to pay for a newer used car a couple months later.

@hippyjoe1955 a 1956 Chevy in the late 70’s was considered a classic and knew someone who had 2 that he restored and took to car shows, they weren’t even 25 years old but they were nice cars.
