and my first car was an '87 Chevy S-10 Blazer...The owner's manual had a VIN decoder in it and I saw that it was of course assembled in Flint...

It REALLY hit home with me that I was driving around in a car built when the storm clouds were on the horizon (although the film was released in 1989, the bulk of filming took place through 1987, iirc)
