Does anyone miss when cars were made big in general? I know I sure do. I miss my grandfather's Caprice Classic. That had a lot of room in it both front and back seats. I miss driving boats instead of these windup toys they manufacture nowadays. I went from driving a 87 Pontiac Safari Station wagon as my DD during College which was longer than most extended pickup trucks and SUVs and that was a big boat made of metal and woodgrain. Horrible on gas and bad acceleration, but damn it was a comfortable car, handles smoothly, great suspension and lots of room, just like the Caprice. Even Cadillac has shrunk their DTS. I don't get why. Not everyone wants a smaller car in exchange for fuel economy. I blame having to compete with the Asian car market. I love those Caddys from the 50s and 60s that are so long with those huge trunks.
