My wife and I just bought a 2019 Kia Sorento. Man, that is one pleasant vehicle to drive, as are most others these days. Comfortable, safe, reliable.

The open road and knees in the breeze has some serious competition nowadays.
That's a good point. Cars and trucks have become very good, and motorcycles no longer have the performance edge they once did. I once owned a 1993 Taurus SHO. It had 220 HP, which was considered a lot of power back then. Today, 300 HP, 400 HP, or more is common in run of the mill cars and trucks, and they're more reliable than ever. These days, nearly everyone can afford something that's a pleasure to drive. The downside is the roads. Around here they have become terribly congested and are crumbling in places.
