"Sorry but the interiors in cars back in the 70s were not that great in general"

Like an "American" '76 Cadillac Fleetwood with pillow top seats, cut pile carpeting, rear footrests and vanity mirrors for example?

The luxury amenities and power options in a '98 Avalon are about the same that you would find in a late '70s loaded Buick or Oldsmobile.

It's the unnecessary options that were put into vehicles in the last 10 years are what will take their toll on somebody's wallet. There are a lot more now than there were in 1998.

Some Avalons even came with bench seat and column shift. Why, I don't know. You can barely fit five in an Avalon with comfort, let alone six.
