The  question posed to the kid was "What do you find so interesting about 
this  car?" Without a pause the boy said "The pushbuttons to make it go!".   
While growing up any Chrysler product that could have had a pushbutton  
transmission in my mind was the coolest. 


On the way to the Maine meet, one of my Coker tires decided to disassemble  
and delaminate, and we pulled into a Chrysler dealership just over the Maine  
border.  When the kid came out to take the car in to the bay, he just sat  in 
the driver's seat and looked lost.  I pointed out the shift buttons and  told 
him to just push the "D" and he reached out and merely touched it and, when  
nothing happpened, looked at me like "Well, what now?"  Seems he thought it  
worked like any modern electronic button where you just touch it.  Well, I  
finally convinced him to actually push the button and when it worked, he was  just 
blown away.  Funny how things change.
