[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The humble millionaire next door seems like nonsense to me; rich people are not driving 25 year old Volvo station wagons. And everyone with a nice new luxury car obviously isn't broke and overextended. I'm currently in a swank town and every car is a new Range Rover, Porsche crossover, Tesla, or Audi-BMW-Mercedes (they all look alike). The worst car I see are new Chevrolet Tahoes, which are like 80 grand. If that humble old money thing ever existed, it certainly doesn't anymore.[/quote]

I would kill for a 25 year old Volvo station wagon.

Rich folks can afford anything. But the car manufacturers all produce indistinguishable crap today. If you have a decent vehicle now, there is zero reason to buy something new today. And don't even get me started on the people that choose Range Rovers or Jeeps. [/quote]

You’re so full of crap. Nobody rich is driving an out of warranty piece of junk with gen 1 airbags that probably don’t even work. Rich value safety and their time.[/quote]

Ah. Sorry, we don't. Maybe some of us are stupid. I don't like the way modern cars are stuffed full of gizmos that are liable to break down at any moment and annoy me. Cars from 30 years ago are so much simpler to repair. I do worry about the airbags, though. I guess there is no car that can satisfy all my demands. Also, and I cannot emphasize this enough... I don't like cars. They're all ugly. I'd rather ride horses (that too is a dangerous pursuit).
