I love cars. Since I first read Car and Driver in high school, I've been a car nut. Nick at Nite used to show Route 66--basically, two guys in a 1960 Corvette driving around the country. I died and went to heaven.
Fast forward to today. There's something about Detroit that bothers me. The Dodge Charger, Ford Thunderbird and Mustang, and the new Camaro. They aren't fresh, clean sheet designs. They are updated versions of old classics. Is there anyone willing to try something new, daring? How much courage would it take to think of something that will make people oh and ah, or make them angry. Car design should be visceral, risky and willing to take chances. Instead, tried and true is the watchword. Shareholders hate bold.
