These Are Your Automotive Blind Spots
“A couple of questions, I don’t understand:
“1. Why does the average new car, only offer white, gray, black, and maybe one color like a blue or a red as options? Does no one like having colorful cars anymore? What happen to fun colors like plum crazy, guardsman blue, etc?
“You used to have quite a nice selection of choices, once upon a time, regardless of brand or model. GM, Ford, and Mopar used to just have a sheet of colors you could choose from:
“2. Why does no one like cars anymore? Why is everything CUVs, SUVs, and Trucks? Does no one actually enjoy driving anymore? Is everyone on the planet suddenly needing mass cargo space, and no longer want something economical and easy to navigate and park?
“3. Any modification that makes the vehicle worse to drive. Stanced cars that look like they have broken axles. Trucks so low, they can’t cross over the average speedbump, and so on. Just… why?”
Are these blind spots or are they just questions about the state of the automotive landscape in 2023?
