Car Commercials

It occured to me again today that I have passed another milestones of age - as if I needed further clues.

I was watching a commercial and a car was racing around a winding road (professional on a closed track, of course.) The announcer was listing all the perks that would make a car nut desire this car. I don't know whether he said it or if I just inferred it - but I remembered all those ads that talked about a car going zero to sixty in just a few seconds.

It didn't appeal to me. At my age, I am more interested in how quickly (and securely) it can get me back to zero. That's the next commercial - for the older adults. I wonder if any advertising firm is listening?
