We do want lots of gee wiz gizmos in our modern cars. Just try to sell a used car with manual crank windows today. Very enjoyable video.

@starladear002 Thank you for the comment - the one good thing with a crank window system on an old car of course, is there is one less electrical item to go wrong with age.

@hudsoninbury Oh I know that :) It is always amusing to watch someone trying to pay a toll at a bridge when he can't roll down the wondow. Oh, the contortions!

Thank you very much...

I can think of one more thing to add to that list, depending on where you live: air conditioning.

Nice old Dodge. What model is it?

Very nice very detailed video. These things are amazing, it looks like they are so basic compared to modern cars, but I fully agree with you, you don't need more controls. The FluidDrive system is a nice idea, I don't know why automakers don't use it anymore. I'm thinking of asking you, if you wouldn't mind making a video of the interior lights at night. I mean, modern cars have lights everywhere, and this car has... not :) it would be interesting to see it :) Thank you for the video.

I don't know if you have a proper car mount for your camera... but I for one would LOVE to see a video of any of your old cars on the B Roads of the UK! I have been curious about the fluid drive for years and never seen one in original condition... Thank you for these videos!
