Incfedibly poor quality American designed and built cars, no wonder why the Japanese passed us up and Detroit went into the toilet

@EgaoNoGenki, I remember my '85 Camry cost $10,700 new. Come to think about it,I guess those $1488 cars weren't so bad after all. Point taken!

@gli7utubeo Well, how much did the foreign ones cost?

Wow, look at those $1488 cars at ~1:10; no wonder everyone switched to foreign cars back then.

LOL! When ever I thought of a water-bed, I remember back in the 70's when this one neighbor of ours had a van with a water-bed in it!! My sister had a water-bed also!! She gave it up in the late 90's! I found them uncomfortable!! Are they still in style?
