How much did a gallon of gas cost when you first started driving?
I drove my parent's 1971 Road Runner to high school as a junior (September '71 to June '72) and as a senior (September '72 to June '73). Never had a girl (except my sister) in the vehicle with me during those years. Photo is the same vehicle as it looks today (I found the current owner on a Road Runner Facebook group). It was Bahama Yellow when ordered/purchased and had 15 x 7 rallye wheels and the Goodyear Polyglas G60-15 white letter tires back then.
P.S. The low-compression 383 auto with open 3.23 differential averaged 12.5 MPG and ran the quarter mile in very low 15's.
