Fashion trends and styles come and go with alarming swiftness, but not so much in the auto industry, where change takes time and costs more than a pair of Crocs. You don’t have to look beyond social media to figure out the latest clothing design hype and you only have to look in a parking lot to spot popular vehicles. That’s about as much as I’m going to say about fashion however, cars are a different story.
Who remembers sliding around in the back of a station wagon surrounded by metal and glass? I still have a small scar on my forehead from an unfortunate maneuver gone wrong while camped out in the cargo area of our family truckster on a road trip. Maybe it knocked some sense in me, but I can’t remember.
