Soren,

If a person (as in "I have a friend") adapted a certain lifestyle regarding food, garb, motorcycles, musical tastes in the late 60's - 70's and never saw a need to change - would that person be retro, time warped, consistent/reliable or an anachronism?????????

Granted, we should not be imprisoned by the past. Push button starters are cool, oil coolers are cool also

Nope that person would be themselves. Happy and satisfied with the tastes that they have, and nothing wrong with that (I'll always be a left over punk rocker from the 80's in some form or another). The thing is if a company wants to go after a younger generation with different tastes than the staus quo design, then the company needs to make some adjustments as they see fit.

I am saying that change in products are almost always inevitable when the market calls for it. Some of us do not like the changes, some of us do. That being said, I still think the only goood looking year for the Comet was 1964. The last real Corvette was in 1967. I never cared for the old Chargers (liked 'Cuda's much better), but love the new Charger. However to attract new customers and to attempt to keep the interest of previous customers, things change.
