My first ALBUM was on 8-TRACK.  I was trying not to go that far into the time machine.  Gets the young-uns all spooked.

The first car I had only had an AM radio, and I had a below dash mounted 8-track.

Showoff..... my first car had a vertical radio, with pushbuttons.  And cassette.

A few years ago my grandfather bought a new truck, than proceeded to have a stereo shop remove the new radio... and replaced it with an antique 8-track player.

I can actually say that for a brief time in my teens, I owned a 7" reel-to-reel.  Great sound quality, nearly as good as CD.  Sucked for portability.
