While I can appreciate that, I'm actually the polar opposite. I prefer vehicles with a rougher ride and lots of road feel being transferred through the steering wheel and floor pan. Hell, I even love climbing into an ice cold vinyl interior on a frosty winter's day (sick, ain't I?), and sitting in there until things warm up. And while my diesel Dodge has a cloth interior, it has a top speed of 70 mph...downhill (no overdrive). I am more at home in that ol' rattletrap than in any vehicle I've owned in the past thirty years (I've owned it for 22 years).
The one and only thing I have against
some of the older vehicles is brakes. It's kind of hit or miss. Most disc brakes, even early ones, were fine for me. But four wheel drum brakes are generally lacking. Generally. I had a 6-cylinder Rambler wagon that I put V-8 drum brakes on up front, and it stopped incredibly well, without ever having to deal with brake fade or pulling. It's brakes were bigger than what came on the original '64 Pontiac GTO!
