I remember that you needed good shocks in the car or you would jump tracks when 
you hit a big bump.  The other down side to 8 tracks is the only tapes I've 
seen for sale at yard sales lately is KC and the Sunshine Band.

I have one, still mounted in my old GMC with 31 Mexican tourist stickers on it, 
which plays both 4-track (the precursor to the 8-track and full-brother to the 
"carts"--cartridges that radio stations used for recording and playing canned 
ads) and 8-track tape cartridges. All that came just before cassettes which 
precluded CDs, etc. No matter what the medium it was still just music.
