Sample Book Insights:
#1 Americans used to be a gritty people who made their own stuff. But now, we are losing our individuality. We are becoming too safety conscious to do things like roll around in the back of a station wagon if the old man takes a turn too fast in the family truckster.
#2 The things I hauled the most in my piece-of-shit pickup were ass and grass. No one rode for free.
#3 The landau top is a car concept that was popular in the 1970s. It was exclusively on American cars, and it shouted, Don’t pop the hood; look at the love seat we’ve grafted onto the roof.
#4 The Japanese were good for only 8 percent of the market share for cars in 1976. By 1986, they had over 20 percent. We were asking for it, like when a woman is raped and the defense is Did you see what she was wearing.
