It sounds like an old German PzKW Panther V tank, and it probably gets similar fuel mileage! I worked on many of these cars in the 1970's. They were more maintenance intensive than cars now, ..... EXCEPT that when a car fails now, 98% of drivers have no idea how to diagnose and fix them.
@bestamerica I don't think any American cars from this era had amber "turning sign" or turn signals. Instead of separate coloured lights the red brake lights flash intermittently to indicate a turn is intended.
@bestamerica Well it's a little less safe but there's nothing you can do about it now, the cars have been made. I've driven a car from 1929 that didn't have any seatbelts so this Oldsmobile is much safer, lol.
I had an Olds 98 like the car in this video and nobody crashed into me despite my shitty driving (I was inexperienced at the time). The lights do a good enough job.
My dad had the same model, color but with a 403 engine in it and a rebuilt transmission that car could get up and go plus it had monroe shocks brand new for 92 and drove it from memphis tn to los angeles oh i miss that car..

it is still not good, not safety,,,
red light is STOP only,,,
yellow light is turning sign / parking emergency,,,
same as 2 front amber lights near headlights,,,
yes separate lights are better
