Question: What has a couple decades and lots of techno-wizardry wrought? Answer: a few inches of legroom.

What does it say that 25 years ago they produced a car that got as good or better mileage than our fancy and pricy new hybrids with all of their computer-techno-wizardry?

Is newer always better?

Is the latest technology always better than the tried and true?

Has over two decades simply given us more complexity and a few inches of legroom?
