I tell you, kids look at you funny, but nothing is made as well as it used to be. I have an old gas dryer in the basement. It was there (and old already) when I bought the house from a guy with a wife and three sons. Other than putting on an aluminum vent (safety repair), that damned thing is still running! I've done NOTHING to it in all these years. Clothing sizes as are joke. You almost need to buy everything a size too big to make up for their skimping. And you seem to be in incredibly good shape and even you are ticked off.
