Yeah, sure. I remember when gas got near $3/gallon for the first time, people said that that was the last you'd see of gas guzzlers, no more high output motors, no more big trucks, no more high performance cars. Well, you can see how that all came true.
I've always wondered if that mindset was a product of the depression. Nowadays, there are fewer who lived through the 30's and our economy has bounced up and down but never down to that extent. So folks nowadays don't see the "danger" in buying expensive to operate toys - "in a few years gas will drop again". I guess we really live in a different world than our grandparents did.
