It means he has a FUN sunny weekend car I'm guessing.
And that's awesome, but let's not act like he hasn't had basically every part of the car replaced. I had a a Camaro with a 500hp 427bb. In 3 years, more things broke than every car I've owned since combined. I still have fond memories of the car, but acting like it was bulletproof is idiotic.
 
How many of those 50 yr old vehicles do you want to use as your daily driver? Sunny Sunday afternoon vehicle sure, daily driver I'm having my doubts. Even though 50 yrs is getting you into the 1970s for models.
you can go search FB marketplace for it if you want. doubt there will be any EVs that old worth anything.
 
looks like a lot of the major automakers are moving away from EVs.
In the US due to incentives, trying to cave this? Note, I drive a 2016 Ford Explorer, my next vehicle will be an EV, just haven't needed a new one because I don't put many miles on these days.

Just temporary for US consumer adoption to take hold, it allows legacy automakers to limit investment during the adoption phase. The focus on hybrids is short-term.

But all legacy ICE automakers understand they need to be all-in on EVs in 5-10 years or they will go the way of Kodak, Compac, etc.

I just enjoy vehicles. Drives a 10 year old buick sedan.
it's pretty nice, 300hp awd couch that can do 30 mpg, surprising decent handling even out on Colorado mountain roads. Tough to find a vehicle that fits me being tall and car seats easily. I mean I have the duel sport motorcycle and, ATV for more fun currently, kind of space limited with 4 vehicles overall.

looks pretty wide spread.

Japan has been investing in hydrogen not EV and Volkswagen owns Scout. Keep trying
 
We can't talk about new cars because we have to talk about 20 year old retiree-mobiles instead and how many people will still have them when they become 50+ year old retiree-mobiles
bought the wife a new SUV back in April. Just had the 30k mi service done this week on it.
