Haha, that's funny. I was just yesterday thinking about how awesome it was as a little kid when the folks got a new car.
Now I get a new car and, meh... car. I mean it's nice and all, and I apparently liked it enough to buy it. But it's not mystical and amazing like when I was a little kid. I guess partly because I now regard it as just another damned expense that I tolerate for some reason on top of a thing that I use and like. Or something. Idunno, it all makes more sense when I'm drinking...
That's because the joy has been sucked out of our existence.
Remember when adults got excited about christmas?
Aye, I'd rather have a car that lasts forever even though that's not a thing.
That's why I've switched to Mercedes Benz. At least they last longer than the crappy Dodge/Fiat bullshit I had been buying. My cheapass hyundai lasted pretty well, but fell to complete useless bits of junk all of a sudden, as they do. Similar stories apply to most of the jap cars I've owned also [except for the MR2 spyder I had to get rid of after the dotcom bubble burst and burst my bubble with it].
Lol, my wife has a toyota. I'm driving an 86 dodge truck as needed and a 2008 rx8 turboed. I need some better damn sense. My shit stays broke down. If not one it's the other. A mazda is just a Ford as of 2009
