        @WSJ apparently you've never been to southern California. I see at least one 1940's or older car every day. Junk? No. Classics? Yes.

        @WSJ thanks to #Obama and auto ind for increased mpg standards. Holding on to our 20 yr old car until we can afford 50+ mpg.

        @WSJ Not surprising. Mine's "new" at just six years old, 180,000 mi, but good luck affording another vehicle.
