Default RE: Survival on dealer's row

I think the sales numbers on the Challenger and Camaro may be the spring board for a more retro approch to car designs. But understand that CAFE standards and fuel prices will play a big roll in what will be. Don't ask for who the bell tolls... it tolls for the V-8. Buy em while you can boys and girls they won't be around long. Unless someone comes up with a cheap gas substitute, goodbye V-8s. Thats the fact of life. I watch in awe as the first muscle car era faded into the sunset and 6s and small anemic 8s replaced the big boys. Then a new dawn arose and slowly the technology started bringing the HP up and the cubes increased (liters for you young guys). To get us to the point we are at now. But alas the days of our super hero in his soul mobile are numbered so says the super guru. So get em while their hot and drive them often. I saw a Ford GT on GLBlvd. in Kannaplois on tuesday. Red with white stripes and my son saw a 2008 Viper in Concord monday morning 0730. Cool cars and very rare sightings. Its warming up and they are bringing them out.
