A few weeks back I YouTubed  2025 Detroit Auto Show highlights.   Having been to a few myself, many years ago, I thought, "Geez....pretty lack-luster, not the way I remember it."    

Wel.... if you're a 50+ car guy  you really don't need additional proof that times have changed.  But just in case you did.....    😔 😣 😔

Chris, I suspect the bulk of the fan base has gone to the big car show in the sky and the younger generations do not have much interest. Yes, the times have changed.

They were all at the cell phone Expo. But no one saw anyone else  -  they were all looking down at their phones!

The Auto show last October in Anaheim was a bust too. Glad I got in free otherwise I'd want my money back. It was a complete waste of time for me.

Noise, vibrations, smell, and speed are out these days.  Quiet, smooth, and fast are in.  I'm a dinosaur and out dated.
