Other than crash safety back then I won’t disagree with you. But I’ve never owned a car from that time period so I don’t know what it’s like. 94 is as old as it gets for me, but the highest it gets is 2009. I will absolutely agree with your stance on modern trucks not actually being used for hauling or towing and how dangerously large they are. It’s more dangerous to not have a large vehicle these days. And I’m assuming that stretch of road was spine crushing with no load? Sounds like something you only do once or twice.
