"They treat 18 year old adults differently from 21 year old adults. Let's see... where is the constitutional authority for THAT? "

Well see I can't tell if your being sarcastic or not :)

what would the constitution have to do with 21 vs 18? Also what does age have to do anything? If VA decided not to let folks over the age of 80 drive wouldn't they be allowed to do that? The only questionable part about the drinking age I see would be the federal government blackmailing the states to set the age.

So what other laws treat two adults differently? Can I get reduced sentences or fines for being a senior citizen?

Oh, come on, you know the answer is "No" and the reason is the XIVth. So why is 18 versus 21 different? Do we have and age-of-majority-lite now?
