Lexus Fanatic
I won't get into bustlines and houses, but I will admit that I liked the B-I-G cars that I grew up with. No one was more sad and disappointed than I was in the late 70s and 80s, when the industry downsized and gave us less car for more money (and they're still downsizing today....the Town Car, DTS, and Lucerne, as we know them will soon be gone). But, of course there's another side to it, too........in some ways, an even better one. The land yachts of yore, despite comfort and a soft ride, didn't have the sharper handling, braking, steering, gas mileage, or FWD/AWD winter traction we have today.
