It ain't helping them that cars last 4-5 times longer than they did 30 years ago.

I think you mean the loans, instead of the cars. Everyone
likes a new car, especially when you finsih paying off one. I think a lot of folks just don't feel right, unless they have a car payment. But when you now stretch out these car loans to 5, 6, 7 years, instead of the old standard 4 year car loans, you get what you get now.
Further, when more features have been required, like back up cameras, etc. the base costs will climb as well.
