Generation Y does have some of the characteristics you describe. They have been 'trained' to want the newest and latest iAnthything and the Millennials are not far behind. The Ms may be the most educated group of people any time or any where. Aside from Apple I think they are far less likely to be brand loyal. When was the last time you saw a bumper sticker that read: I would rather walk than ride in a Ford? Fortunately, there are a few like you and have a Bow Tie, MOPAR or even the Oval that will keep the faith. |

I really don't like my generation....
I'm reading people sing GT500 praises for no real reason at all. There are no factual data points to stand on...and yet they sing... I guess I'll just have to chop off their ankles with the sharp front end of my car when I get it. |

That reminds me of a bird that irritated my father-in-law by singing at the first hint of light every morning right outside his window. After a while he finally decided to do something about it & took a pellet rifle to the bird - but he missed and only shot off one leg. Thereafter the bird would be heard every morning at first light, singing, without a leg to stand on. It was his nature.

BTW - Joe - I have't replied only because my hand hasn't allowed me to make enough time to set aside Fen' - you're so right. I'll admit I jumped ship from the 4th Gen to 5th Gen bandwagon as soon as there was confirmation of it's return. I have my reasons, however, honestly, this generation is SO what I've wanted from CAMARO that I'm not even looking forward to the next generation, lol. I almost don't think it's possible for me to like it more, on the whole, as this gen', so it's a good thing CAMARO5 is my home

I feel that's what separates the men from the boys though. I don't see a problem in wanting the latest and greatest products as long as you don't complain to hell and back when something better debuts. Take my mom's Malibu for example. Easily one of the most perfect examples of Old GM mediocrity. It's fuel efficient, it runs well, but it's not very exciting. It has a "good enough" interior and a "good enough" exterior. When GM was showcasing the Malibu nameplate through the years, even they couldn't come up with something good to say about the '04-'07 model.
That being said, I don't feel like I need to complain about the vastly improved '08-'12 Malibu or the stunning '13 Malibu just because we own an older model. That's just business, that's progress, there's always going to be something newer and something better, especially in this industry. The reactions on this site are going to be very amusing to watch once the 6th gen debuts, especially now that GM has a workable RWD sports coupe platform to build a Camaro off of, rather than trying to figure out how to make a full size RWD sedan platform into a coupe. I think it all goes back to how a good chunk of the current crop of 5th gen Camaro owners are completely and utterly full of themselves, as if they own some high-dollar exotic sports car, whining about how they see two or three other Camaros on the road every day now and how GM should listen to everything they say because they were "early adopters" or some BS like that.
