> The NEW bus is on the cover of Auto World. A three page article follows. > The author of this article also has the audacity to say that the VANAGON > has no personality !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A. people who write for magazines usually haven't much of a personality themselves. :) B. people who write for automobile magazines usually think all automobiles should look and drive like Ferraris or Porsches or, in the case of Consumer Reports, Ford Crown Victorias. :) C. people who go around saying, especially in print, that this or that automobile has no "personality" most often do not know what "personality" is ... to them, "personality" means "expensive": cheap cars have no "personality"; only Ferraris, Porsches, etc. have "personality". D. the writer is likely highly pissed cause she/he wasn't sent to the auto show where the Ferraris, Porsches, etc. were being shown/tested/etc. :) |
