Re: [AMC-list] Kids and Ramblers

[tom jennings <tomj@xxxxxxx>]

For the most part -- there are always exceptions -- we all like and imprint
onto cars that were available, or cool, or whatever your particular
preference/kink was, when we were "kids". We take that interest with us as
we age, usually.

My father liked really old Fords etc. I too thought they were cool, but
never moved to own one. Did you? Why would 16 yr olds today be any different
from us?

It should be abundantly obvious that "kids today" will like what's cool and
relevant during their own *now*, just as we did then. My father could not
understand why I'd want something as complicated, fussy-looking, heavy, etc,
as a 60's Rambler. Which, if you think about it, is fairly funny as the
damned things from that era are so stone-simple. Unless you compare them to
a Model A or something.

Our lives are not one whit more important or interesting than kids lives
today.
