Thankfully in my 25 years of being a part of various automotive communities, people like you are the minority. Otherwise automotive enthusiasts would be much fewer in numbers than we already are.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but one day you'll get older. I just sincerely hope wisdom follows.

People like me? People that are capable of voicing their opinion in a discussion without getting butt hurt or dancing around the subject?
There's no lack of wisdom here, there's a lack of communication... You're not even debating the subject anymore, you're just talking about me.
In my 15 years of being a part of various automotive communities I've come across so many different types of people that I couldn't count, and to call any of them the minority would be foolish, there are just different types of people that tend to stick to different smaller groups. I think you're jaded by living in bufu Alabama, because here in Chicago the car scene is thriving. There seem to be more enthusiasts then ever as far as I'm concerned.
And thank you for informing me that I'm gonna get old... Truly life changing wisdom there.
