Yes, absolutely.

Age 58

As always, size matters:

In our youth, we started out under the hood at the local service station, and bragging rights in the 60's were about the size of your carburetor.

Today, for many, a fart pipe defines performance, and our youth often start out button-pushing instead of wrenching and never go back. The claim to fame is now the size of your hard drive.

Sadly, most cars today are simply commodities, unable to draw an ounce of passion.

P.S. I actually overheard a customer in a NAPA store recently ask for a higher-amperage chip for his alternator!
