Do college kids even care about cars?

kids now get all their interaction and entertainment without leaving their room, so why bother with an expensive, polluting, depreciating asset?

and Ill add to that, 'back in the day' a car was a status symbol for kids. a car made you cool.
not anymore.

an iphone and an facetwittergram account is your status symbol

cars are something kids rebel against now, not rebel with



oh, and there are a shit ton of idiot dipshits on digg.

Ehhhh, I don't know about that. Technology definitely makes you cool but being from the suburb (west end, henrico, richmond) if you didn't have a car junior year right after getting your license you were pretty lame. Plus you would have to beg for rides everywhere.
