Because the buying public is stupid as shit? Seriously, every time I see someone driving a Cadillac Escalade, I have to wonder if he was dropped on his head when he was an infant.

Ha ha! Of course you don't, because it was a piece of crap!
IMO, if "image" is the only basis for somebody spending
waaaay too much money for something, they will surely be disappointed.
If I want a sports car, I'll buy from a company that has a long history of making quality sports cars. If I want a luxury sedan, I'll buy from a company that has a long history of making quality luxury sedans. I would NEVER buy an SUV or truck from a sports car or luxury sedan maker. It's just common sense, right?
That said, this country seems to be overrun with people who haven't one iota of common sense, so, I'll give you that. But I will continue to buck "trendy" and stick with what actually
works, image be damned!
