My first car and current beater came with a complimentary cassette. The only song I remember on it was Africa by Toto. I wish my tape player still worked because I would still listen to it.

Looking through my fathers old records today and I found this.

Not sure if it came with one of the cars he purchased. I know he only bought Oldsmobiles through the 70's and 80's.

Raaaiiinnnn down in Afffffrrriiiccca.

Sorry got distracted. I miss the 442, and the image itself

Lots of history behind Oldsmobile. I wrote a paper about Ransom E. Olds, I think he was an automotive genius.

I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to acquire a functional tape head unit if you really set your mind to it.

If Jason hasn't written an article about Oldsmobile albums he should.

Ransom isn't credited enough. He was a true pioneer.
I did sell a college class on the fact that Ransom was better then Ford Haha

It's one of those things where I wish it worked, but don't want to put the time and effort to find a head unit and install it in a vehicle I drive maybe once a month.

My Uncle's first car was this, A 1995 Cutlass Supreme. I loved it. He loved it. Until 2008 when he bought a Corolla. But it was a great car, never had any problems for us and was quite fast compared to the rest of our cars at the time ('99 Chevy Malibu lux, '02 Chevy Malibu, '99 Merc M350) because of the v6 powerrr. He sold it to some old lady on our street and then it burst into flames. Good times... Good times.

Africa is Stan and Francine's song from when they met IIRC but I can't seem to find that clip.
