THIS. HERE. No recent car I've bought in the last 10 years has given me this. That cruise in the car, feel connected to your car vibe. I have a theory that as cars became heavier, higher off the ground, longer, etc, that made them less enjoyable. I think that's why the car culture has died compared to what it used to be. I mean I had a 1990 Pontiac Sunbird LE Coupe as one of my first cars. POS. 98 HP engine, but it only weighed 2400 lbs and it was actually FUN TO DRIVE. Imagine that.
