:IdiotsIt is killing me not to be part of the young generation any longer. But there is hope for the future my 2 year old loves it when I fire up the 55 (its loud due to glass pack exhaust) and if she is in the garage she loves to get in and pretend to drive it. so I doubt she will be a tree hugger riding cdta in the future. However I have to say I can understand why people would no longer want to buy new cars. The pricing on them has gotten way too out of control. for the money you would spend 10-12 years ago to get a decent sedan now adays you get a stripped econobox it seems. Personally I only buy used cars as the prices are better and I dont mind getting my hands a little dirty. So it saves me loads of cash which I can then spend on the kids, wife and the 55 just my little financial plan :lol ---
