Yeah, I'm probably referencing based on my own experience. Back in the day I tutored high school and college math and most of the kids I dealt with were boys from homes where there was money. They knew exactly what kind of cars they wanted their parents to spring for. I see now that my experience was somewhat sheltered and not all kids pay attention to the latest "hot" car. I feel a bit adrift here and not tuned into the local culture.Just adding to my own post. When I was in high school I can only think of 2-3 friends (out of many that I had) who "cared" about cars. And they really loved cars - makes and models. MOST kids do not care or know. I doubt this has changed a lot since I've been a kid. I've never heard either of my kids talk about makes or models of cars, and they each have their own car.
I appreciate all the input from others here who are more tuned into today's kids than me. But I'm not a dinosaur, I'm not a dinosaur... really.
