[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s an old money, New England, Yankee thing, to this day. Partly it’s the old money attitude that it’s gauche to show off wealth - but it’s also just practicality. You need 4 wheel or AWD. No use getting a sporty little car, you’ll never get out of your driveway in the winter.[/quote] Flaunting wealth is considered vulgar in the South too. Ever see Driving Miss Daisy? My southern grandmothers were not Jewish but otherwise very much like this. You do not flaunt your wealth, ever. It’s not proper. [/quote]
