I don't do forbes, but I'll be sticking to my good oldie thanks and they can shove their stupid business models. There is no end to this and they couldn't give a flip for peoples privacy.

 

Not from mine, I drive a '99. Still running strong.

 

Forbes is so full of scripts even my iPad isn't showing the site..

 

Mine either. I drive a '02 Mustang and still running strong and now I'm glad I kept it.

This article presented me with the image of herd animals on the Serengeti. Opportunist feeders lurking in the tall grasses, others strategically located at watering holes and even more roosting in trees or nestled behind rocks. The only difference from how it actually works in the wild is that here the predators have formed an alliance and every slab of raw meat has been claimed before the kill. The herd could stampede which would scatter the predators, but that takes savvy leadership, which is unfortunately absent.

 

None of that for me, thanks

I'll be keeping my '92 Civic hatchback forever.

 

My car of the future is my 03 Mercedes Benz Coupe which I have no intention of getting rid of. Best car I ever had, still runs like a top. I Paid 1900 dollars cash for it lol.
