I second that! While I love the new cars, I always remember asking my dad a few years before he passed away if he wanted to go the new car show in Seattle. He and I used to go all the time when I was young. He turned me down, saying there just wasn't anything new to look at anymore. They all look the same. But ask him about going to a car show in the 50's and 60's, and he'd just light up!

"Now that was exciting!" he'd say. All that chrome, and new features, like air conditioning!
