Back then I could tell the brand, year, and model... now I can't tell
one car from another... now I consider them all generic
transportation. I used to be able to recognize a Caddy instantly,
today I can't tell if it's a Caddy or a Nissan. My '91 Landcruiuser
is probably more unique looking than any car on the road... the new
ones look exactly the same only they cost quadruple the price.
