Not all of us.
1) I'm still with the same partner I was with 30 years ago.
That doesn't leave me a lot of time for dating young babes.
(or a lot of energy, come to that . . .)
I will admit I did ask, when she turned 42, if I could
trade her in for a couple of 21-year-olds. Her answer?
"Sure, if you could find two dumb enough to take you"
2) What's wrong with convertibles? I had one nearly thirty
years ago (a Triumph Vitesse), and I got a different one
in 1986 - a Mustang GT. I've still got that one. And in
a year or so I expect to replace it with yet another one;
we're thinking about a MINI Cooper "S" convertible, with
the John Cooper "Works" package, as a replacement, to go
along with our existing MINI Cooper.
