Agreed, then average joe mr new car buyer goes into the showroom:
Salesman: Hello there Mr Average Joe! How can I help you?
Mr Average Joe: Hello, Salesman, I'm interested in this here "Ecoboost" Falcon, I hear its really good on fuel!
Salesman: Ahh yes, Mr Average Joe! It has that new 4 cylinder engine.
Mr Average Joe: 4 Cylinder? *Starts shuddering with fear, remembering his Starfire-4 Commodore* I had a Starfire-4 Commodore back in 1980.......
Salesman:
Well, thats probably not going to happen but when I mentioned Ecoboost Falcon to Dad and 4 cylinder, he said right away "But that 4 cylinder Commodore....."
I don't think its going to get much consideration from the average baby boomer, really.
