"There's a man who lives a life of danger,
Every one he meets remains a stranger,
For every move he makes;
Another chance he takes,
Odds are he won't live to see tommorrow."

Secret Agent Man

Around here everyone must get a new 40k$ car every three years or they feel ashamed. I still drive my 1993 Buick Roadmaster. They ask why I don't change cars; or they give me pitying looks, like I am poor or something.
