Reminicing: The 90's

I was just sitting around and reminiscing about how awesome the 90's was. To me it felt like such a luxurious time, akin to the 1920. The stock market was bangin, Big V8's were every where Fleetwood, S class, 7 series, Ls400's the cars made to look and feel defined and presedential. Real rap, Tupac, biggie, snoop (when he was good), Nate dogg, Warren G. Not to forget the "first black persident" bill was a cool guy!



Your thoughts/inputs!
 
Yes it was. Don't forget Nirvana.

I was lucky enough to be in high school 91-94, and college from 94-98.



What sticks out in my mind in the early 90s (regarding cars) - 225 hp in a Mustang 5.0 was something to brag about (and be feared), I remember the low rider pick up truck phase, when neon lights under cars first came out, when a cell phone was in the form of a bag phone, when "hammers" and "five stars" were the wheels to have, I remember when an Alpine head and Jenson 6X9's (along with some kind of a sub) constituted a "system", and when guys would play their Sony Discman thru the head unit, because not every car came with a cd player.



EDIT - and I forgot to mention the "blackout kits / covers" for headlights and taillights.
 
And who forget the Bulls and Croatia getting 3rd place in the WC 1998!! haha very very good time, although I too think I was too young to fully appreciate everything
 
yeah unfortunately I didnt really get to appreciate everything in the 90's but from what I do remember it was awesome. It did seem like a worry free time.
 
It was great for me. My stepfather was in court for embeseling 8.5 million over 84-88. Bonus points for who knows who he is. I never liked him if you cant tell.
 
I loved the 90s and reminisce often. I was your typical long haired 'grunge' kid in high school with the Pearl Jam and STP t-shirts, flannel, and corduroy and/or ripped up baggy jeans.



Haha... I had a pair of those headlight blackout covers on my '88 Pontiac Grand Prix! I was (pre) ballin'. :D
 
Yeah, the nineties were awesome for me.



I was in college from 1990 to 1995, which was a fun time.



I worked at a really great "internet job" from 1998 until 2003.



Life is cool now, but it was really bangin' the previous decade.



At least I take better care of my car now. But I must admit that I sometimes miss the days when I didn't know what I was doing ... it took like a tenth of the time for me to "detail" my car.



I hope that last comment doesn't get me banned.



:LOLOL
 
OMG..nostalgia for the '90s :eek: Man do you guys make me feel a zillion years old!



Heh heh, I was teaching college back then so I get a bit of a :chuckle: that so many of you were college students! I still remember when Cobain died and so many of my students were all bent about it.



OK..they were good for me too, but I like today better :D Even if I *am* that much closer to my own check-out time (sorry, been to lots of funerals lately).



Ya know, honestly...most of the great cars from back then (including the ones I had) could get smoked by a lot of today's grocery-getters.

yeah, thank goodness Bush Jr. took over because since then we haven't had anything to worry about. :nervous:



The early 90's were tough due to the economy until Clinton was elected (raised taxes abd worked on the deficit) and the Fed then relaxed the money supply. Now, you want the Clinton days back.
