You have to make sure you take care of all the parts of an old car much more carefully then a new one as you must take care of YOU as the years wax on. Your oil must be monitored a bit more closely for as you get older it takes a bit more for your motor to get up the hill. The additives must be just right for ruptures in an old tank are hard to replace. Yes, it’s important to go out for a steady drive but excessive use can result in permanent damage. As one gets older they must take care of the body better then ever for nobody wants to be driving through heaven’s gate before the door is really open.
