But I was never an average person. Most people back then had either the muscle cars or the family land barges, like for instance the '59 Chevy. (Family had one when I was a kid, and every time I looked at it, I was thinking how much weight I could take off with just a cutting torch. I guess ecomodding starts early :-)) Those of us who drove, or wanted to drive, small cars were the oddballs, just as we are now.
That lawn mower? Well, for some people that dirty 2-cycle B&S mower may have morphed into today's Honda-powered riding mower, but I wonder about comparative fuel use & emissions per acre of grass. And I'll also note that others of us have electric mowers these days.
