Is real cruising dead?
I graduated high school in the early 80's and during that time we went cruising! Nowadays, I think it's a dead ritual. There are "cruise-ins" around (aka "Coffee and cars" because somehow everyone now has to drink coffee 24/7) but these events are more like "park-ins" because aside from getting there, no one is driving!
I found this clip on YouTube. It's pretty accurate for the time. https://youtu.be/FfXD6bmsjL0 Is anyone lucky enough to still be cruising the old fashioned way? (ok, not the REAL way which also involved lots of drag racing or at least stop light to stop light jumping, that we just can't do much any more). Oh, and note the part of the video where the cop talks about the "usual" things kids to wrong and what he does about it. You know, open containers, drinking and driving, and rowdy driving. So he just gives them tickets and sends them on their way. Yup, the good ol' days!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
