The prices look cheap today, but you have remember inflation. Gas back then was 29 cents a gallon before the embargo and minimum wage was something like $2.00/hr. Let's not forget a pack of cards was 15 cents and you could still get a 10 cent candy bar.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming --- WOW, What a ride!
