Car manufacturers are hurtling toward generic cars and style isn’t at the top of the list, so you have to develop your own style—that’s a big order.
Old iron is different because it brings its own style so you’re along for the ride.

Street rods bring their own style.
Classic trucks bring their own style too, but they also bring function because they can still haul stuff.
There’s a lesson here—you don’t need style—you just need a classic Road Warrior.
