After i got out of the Army, in 1946, with an artificial leg, the guvment gave all of the amputees a new car, of our own choice, but no more than $1600! I got a new Pontiac Coupe, 6 cylinder, maroon in color, but i had to wait for it to be delivered. After we got it, my mother and i decided we ought to drive out to California, to visit relatives there. We took my Aunt and her son along, too. We each took a big pile of money, to pay for our expenses--$200 each. Were gone a month-saw all of the tourist traps, met the relatives, saw most of the USA, and returned with money left over!

And, later on, when going to work, in my Renault sedan, of buying a dollars worth, or maybe two, of gas, to last all week. That was 40 miles a day, to work and back home. That car got 30 MPG! My pay-check didn't bring in a lot of money, as i was learning a trade on the G.I.Bill. I did auto repairs at home for many years! And now, i do lawn tractor and mower repairs, for extra cash. How old am i? 86+. At least, i am staying active and healthy!
