The Big Boys-Large Cars
Falcon Ranchero replied to Falcon Ranchero's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I remember an old photo from the 70s where my grandfather was sitting a a picnic table in the park and in the background was a 1969 two door Cadillac Coupe Deville, red with a black vinyl top, hauling a huge airstream trailer. Those big cars must’ve been extremely powerful to tow such heavy weight -
Things like “Bee” or “Buick” or even “Bell Bottoms”

None; that's too bad, I mean I got only one but even that's better than none.

We're just starting to get the bad rain weather. Was nice all week went skiing yesterday but nothing of the sort will happen on the weekend or today. It's gettin' pretty messy around here; slush freezing to ice. Speaking of the skiing I mentioned I guess on Christmas eve two dunderheads decided to go joyriding with thier cars on the actual ski trail and then get stuck. And then the payloader sent in to get them out got stuck. It was all cleared up by the time we went yesterday but still how stupid do you have to be to just wreck community property like that. These days there is simply no respect for other's property.

1969 Ford Galaxie GT

Yeah I kinda figured. I do have red sticker vinyl so I could always cut strips out of that; just takes a little extra work -
The Big Boys-Large Cars

That '65 is absolutley gorgeous; Tried to convince my dad a few months ago on one just like it, a little more darker in that same colour also with a black vinyl top, as it was pristine at $9,000 but one, it was too far away and two, he's dead set on a muscle car. I like all cars for sure, but the big guys are where I'm at. -

Do they have the red stripes decals or is it just the white and black? The black one with the red stripes is so totally what I'd build -
I have an undying interest in those big Land Yacht cars, like the full-sizers from the 60s-70s and of course the Space age figher jets with the fins. If it were up to me I'd get my paws on a large car from the Malaise Era since they are pretty abundant and cheap. I know gas milage goes out the window but those big cars, man they're cool to me. In fact the first classic car I came into contact with was a mid '80s Cadillac Coupe DeVille owned by the old lady across the street from our original house. That was in 2007-09 era. I would regularily run across the road to see it and also was let in the back seat once. That car put me onto the big ones. Even my friend's younger brother has a pretty mint 1969 Chrysler Newport, big green four door he bought himself for $4000. the kid doesn't even have a full license to drive yet. So I guess when I have my own place I'm going to buy a large car. A question I guess I have would be; how is it to manouver such long machinery; I'm sure it's not like terribly hard but I know in Europe those cars are like fish outta water (video below). Around here they'd be significantly easier to drive but I have never been behind the wheel of anything longer than 208 Inches (my dad's truck)
