Episode Quotes

Season 3 / Episode 7: - The Family Car

Kevin Arnold - The Narrator: And so we finally got our new car. It wasn't red, it wasn't a convertible, heck, it wasn't even a Mustang. But it was brand new. And it was pretty cool. 'Course, Dad got his shot at king-for-a-day... and we were happy for him. But that afternoon, I began to understand what Dad had been going through. There was more to that old car than fuel pumps and crankshafts. There was a part of all of us in that car. The places we'd gone, the things we'd done... the family we had been. The family that was moving on. And for the first time, I understood the value of what my Dad had put into it. And why it was so hard to let it go.

MISTAKES/GOOFS

FACT: The car of Arnold family was in fact 1968 Dodge Polara, so it was by no means an old car in 1969, when the action takes place, and it could not look so obsolete, as it is suggested in the episode.
