Letters vs. letters
Dalton M. Jones' Oct. 24 letter making fun of Hummers is nonsensical, implying that people laugh at 1977 Trans Ams. The opposite is true, as second-generation F-bodies are considered classics. My daily driver is a '78 Formula, bought new. Strangers approach me and offer to buy it.
Steven J. Lenz, Phoenix
G. Mendoza's Oct. 24 letter criticizes the Viper for lacking electronic climate controls and for having what he calls a "Neon'' radio, and asks if others see this issue his way. I do not. First, I have no problem with mechanical controls. Second, I own a 2004 Neon STX, and its stock radio is superb, with astonishing sensitivity. It pulls in a clean signal on nearly every AM/FM frequency better than any other radio I've listened to.

Old-drivers letters speed in
I agree with Dutch Mandel's Oct. 24 column on increased testing for older drivers. After 70, they should be tested every two years, in daylight and darkness. Don't rule them off the roads but limit them to certain roads and proper times. They're retired, so driving at 2 p.m. will be no hardship.
