Every company is looking for any thing or way to nickle and dime us to death.
I have a 93' Dodge Dynasty LE that came with all whistles & bells.
That was the last "big Americana car".
Then the Germans took over & said "'Vat's a matter vit you, you can't be making good cars that last forever!"
I'll keep it forever just to be an example, besides it's big, it's comfy, and cheap to operate.
