I want my 1979 AMC back!

It was so cheap and easy to maintain, and it got better gas mileage than modern cars!🤬🤬
All this tech in our vehicles and they all get shit mileage compared to what's possible! I've had better mileage from several older vehicles that I have driven, My 30 plus year old Jeep, for example, gets better mileage than the mid 2000's Hyundai parked next to it, and they both run a six cylinder.
All this tech and they are LESS reliable!🤬🤬🤬 We have ten thousand times more points of failure!
Granted, I was a mechanic, so my vehicles are always super tuned to perfection, but that shouldn't matter!
The parts for newer cars are so EXPENSIVE!!!! And they are more likely to fail.

Oh, and the seats in my Jeep are so comfy compared to the Hyundai!
I know, it has nothing to do with mileage and dependability, but my jeep is better on long road trips.🤓💪😎 My AMC was comfy to drive too. I can't stand the other "car" for a six hour drive.🤣

my best friend in the 90's had several large barns full of amc's...i joked he had the world's last amc dealership...
@1490wayb AMC made some very cool cars.

This one ran pretty good

My neighbor had a amc eagle
@MarineBob I'd love to find one cheap and rebuild it.🤓 My '79 only cost me 500 bucks, and it only had 17,000 original miles. That was a great car for cross country trips.😍
