Once again this is all your opinion about traditional Detroit styling of full-size, dependable cars, which is what Detroit was known and appreciated for. That's why there is a number of people in "mourning" for the loss of vehicles like this.
Also once again, California is not the whole country, I have traveled up and down 80% of the entire east coast for years, always seeing a big majority of mid-full size domestics of all eras all over the place.
Today's smaller cars have more interior space than full-size cars 20 years ago? Try finding me one small car today that has more room than a FWD Cadillac Deville from the early 90's; you won't, I know, because I owned a 93, and it had TONS of head and leg room, a lot more than my current Town Car, which is a bigger vehicle.

It would be nice though if some of the manufacturers that traditionally sold larger cars to older people could still produce a car that is somewhat American in looks, and not the size of a mid-size car 10 years ago, and now trying to pass as a large car. I just don't understand why everything that comes out of Detroit is trying to appeal to the under 50 crowd. There are a lot of people over 50, and many that are not, that like traditional big cars. It is a shame that we are being completely ignored now by the car manufacturers. Cars like the Buick Park Avenue, Cadillac DTS and Lincoln Town Car will always have a following; the problem is that these cars became very over priced.
