<p>[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 8342004, member: 5233"]I think using cars as an analogy is an interesting approach here because you can lump people into 2 different groups. You have "car people" (meaning car enthusiasts) and people who view cars as simply a vessel to take them from A to B. I am in the former...I love cars so I am very particular. When I bought my current daily driver I knew exactly what I wanted. I wanted a low mileage (40K or less) 2017-18 BMW M3 with a DCT transmission in yas marina blue with a silverstone interior. That was what I wanted and I knew if I fell short on any of those features I would not be happy. So, I searched for a year before I found the right car...because I get joy out of driving my car. It's not simply transportation.</p><p><br /></p><p>The latter group of car owners want something (usually) that will serve a more utility only purpose. That can mean they need something that is reliable...or can haul a certain amount of cargo and so on.
