@GroupNebula563 I like station wagons. They’re comfortable, slightly dangerous depending on seating arrangement, and they can sure take a beating and keep moving forward.

@sweetcherry @LoganFive @GroupNebula563 SUV = Millennial's socially-acceptable tax-avoidant term* for station wagon

(My title and registration call my SUVs station wagons; if they were trucks, I'd be assessed higher taxes by my state.)

the humor may be a little dated or obscure, 40 years on but it was a hoot when it first came out. It's a very LA/California movie, lampooning a lot of cutural currents present in the times that may seem obscure or cryptic today. Still a worthy movie watch..

this would make a great double feature with Repo Man..

also a very LA/CA/Hwood movie from the same era. May also contain humor that today will seem odd, obscure or dated. Kind of a fun trip down memory lane. Both movies have some iconic shots of 80's LA that is no longer there because of time & new construction.

another good pairing of 2 very 80's very LA/CA/HW movies would be: "Grease" and "Xanadu".. lots of iconic LA scenes that are no longer there or too changed with time. Xanadu is really underrated as a fun movie, btw.

@LoganFive @GroupNebula563 why are station wagons "slightly dangerous"? (Other than being a car)
Show threadLogan Five Thousand18h ago
@stanni @GroupNebula563 It’s dangerous for the kid thrown in the way back with no seatbelt.

@LoganFive @GroupNebula563 I would never put my kid in any car without a seatbelt 😱
