    mmm -- we had an Exploder (1993 vintage; bought it used from our mechanic in '95 or early '96). Both kids learned to drive in it, come to think of it.

    Drivetrain held up pretty well; had lots of other interesting little glitches. We ultimately passed it along to a hifi buddy, who kept it going for many more years, until it finally more or less collapsed into an amorphous pile of rust.

    And no speakers either. They probably couldn't afford anything else at the moment that picture was taken. :'(
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    I didn't even notice it!? :p

    (given that we still have a CRT TV hooked up at this house -- almost never
    actually watch any TV, though -- 'cept sometimes the news in the morning on a small flat-panel LED TV I found by the side of the road and took a chance on!)
