I mean, if you are 50 or younger. Nothing says old and out of touch like a Cadillac.
Caddies are pretty popular among lower income minorities as well, especially the Escalade.

That is why GM is advertising it as a more advanced form of Cruse Control... Vs. Autonomous driving. In short it is a feature to make your drive easier. but not as a way for you to just not pay attention to the road.
I would love that feature on my car, when taking a long drive. It would prevent driving exhaustion.
Well, common sense tells me that people will see it as some sort of autonomous driving and not pay attention to the road if given this feature, and so therefore if the feature is not fit for autonomous driving, then it should not be released as advanced cruise control either. It is irresponsible.
Not sure where you live. But over here the air fare have steadily dropped. Ten years ago the prices were roughly double on the routes I travel. Considering inflation, the difference is even bigger.
Definitely not dropping where I live. The very cheapest fare is 3 times what it was 10 years ago, and the normal fare is 8 times what it was 10 years ago. And inflation shouldn't count unless wages go up with it, which they don't. I make less than half what I did 10 years ago. Of course, one data point is not a statistics, but in general, everybody seems to make about the same as 10 years ago. And one thing the government average wage statistics don't bother to take into consideration is the amount that unemployed people get paid, which is nothing.
I used to think that Perl's feature of "There's More Than One Way To Do It" was great until I had to start modifying and maintaining the code of other developers,
Maintaining the code of others? Heck, I have found in perl, that it was easier to rewrite a program than try to debug it even if I wrote the original program.
