You do know that cars tend to reflect a certain personality, and eventually you end up buying the personality that replicates your lifestyle, your way of doing things, your ideals, an extension to your dreams, your choice means something.

I have been a fan of cars for more than 30 years, give or take a decade. Ever since I saw or knew what a car was, it was love at first sight. Cars have been on my attention span longer than anything I can remember. They say to be an expert at something you need 7 years, I guess I know a thing or two.

At the age of 17 I was driving a Nissan 280ZX brand new in manual, while I could only drive automatic! A year or so later I was asked by a friend what do you think of a bentley I want to buy one from London? I said buy a Ferrari, he bought the Bentley at age 16. At that young age i knew that people are what they drive.

Driving, watching, even washing cars for a living and reading thousands of reports on all makes and models from the 60’s to this day has given me a kind of 360 degree into the auto field and its progress over the years. It is possible to pick a car from history and say this is the companies next big hit, like the bug for instance at VW, the 350Z at Nissan, the Phantom & Maybach from Rolls Royce & Mercedes Benz respectively.

Over the years a certain consumer and branding sense has evolved into what each car is telling the world. Each car has a story to tell, and when you buy it, you become part of it. And if you dig deeper into what I am saying, you will find out that this is the simple case and idea behind every car.

From the thousands of advertisements and branding campaigns, from all the stuff I have read, from all the programs, magazines, and personal experience and driving quite a few, I give you today a quick and fast analysis of as much cars as possible for this tight space and what each one is saying. The cars should cover as much demographic scale as possible and not all makes are here, but it should give you an idea, and if you mix and match you would get better results.

First: The categories/segments/sizes in the market today are basically the following:

Economy, mid size sedans, full size sedans, SUV’s, sport/coupe, and recently crossovers like the BMW X6 model and the new Cadillac SRX. My breakdown is a bit different, I use my own methodology and naming to make things easier to digest and analyze the drivers behind each wheel.

Blend in: Driver wants or is/has; Quality driven. Check in a pocket. I’m here until I can buy another better expensive car. Wants more for less. Rising star status. Loves change. Cars like: Toyota, Nissan’s,Hyundai & Mazda.

ADC-Americas Dream Club: Driver wants or is/has:Believes in the good old days. Belongs to a large group of free spirit people. Sprit & dream driven. Pushes on through. Outgoing & daring soul.Bang for buck. Cars like the Chevy’s, Cadillac’s, Fords, other GM & Chrysler & Dodge.

I deserve the best: Driver wants or is/has:Success. HIghest engineering standards & quality. Precise & clear. Know what they want. Loves the social status. Competitive spirit. Cars like the German’s, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Audi basically, VW is somewhere else.

Its my life!: Driver wants or is/has: I like me. yes! I’m different & unique. Does not like to taken as just another face. A flair for passion to a certain country. I drive my beliefs & views. Here you find the VW’s, Citroen, Volvo, Renault & Alfa Romeo.

Richie Rich status: Driver wants or is/has: I’m rich and you better know it. Yes my car costs as much as your dream.My other car is a place in Monaco bumper sticker. I love life to the max. Only the best of the best surrounds me. Status king. Man made wonders include Bentley,Jaguar, Aston Martin, Phantom, Maybach.

Exotica: Driver wants or is/has: Exotic kiwi status. Screams Made it!. Important playful person.Look at me little girls & boys love me as well as their envious parents. Loves art. Has a passion for passion itself. Flamboyant personality. Masterpieces include Buggati, Maserati, Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini and few more.

Go anywhere anytime: Driver wants or is/has: Move out of my way all over his face. No obstacles stand in my way and where I want to go or do. I am free. Demands to be many people in one body. Hates bullies. The big boys include all your Jeeps, Range Rover’s, Nissan Patrol, Toyota Land Cruisers and Hummers, BMW X6 & Porsche Cayenne, Mercedes lineup and others.

The fast & Furious Young: Driver wants or is/has: Freedom. Energy.Can do attitude. Daring. Does not mind what people think. Expresses oneself in fashion. Fast and lets do it attitude. Very playful. They include:Audi, Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, BMW and Nissan’s GTR and 350Z, Chevy’s new Retro Camaro, Mustang and a few others from new competition.

Bonus: Some drivers have allies and enemies by default. For instance the Nissan drivers look down on the Toyota ones, only because their machines are made for real drivers, the Toyota drivers are a bit on the shy side of life in this case, they blend in with other cars, nissan do not, the scream in your face design & power.

This will also move into supporting football teams, by the very detailed analysis of several segments of team rivals you find that the segments still stand solid, meaning the Nissan drivers if in a car fan club will by default fall into the same teams supporting! this is a pure personal wild call without any supporting data only personal views and asking hundreds of questions to a vast majority of people.

My life has witnessed many ups & downs, more downs than ups, down’s pave my future ups, each one higher than its predecessor. Dips they call them. Some small, some steep & deep. I eagerly await my next dip, for behind each dip, there is a valley, and with it comes my new mountains to climb & conquer, keep climbing!

I never saw a straight line climbing success. If you analyze the line closely you will see the downs and dips, with all the pain and suffering, the anxiety, the stress levels at boiling point, its al there cleverly disguised. People sometimes need to fake it till they make it, or in other occasions just contain and never complain about their day, while in reality they suffer as you speak.

Every two and a half years you will face a major crisis in your life, sometimes earlier says success guru Brian Tacey. Not just problems, major crisis and life changing happenings, you will be rocked, Your boat and everything in it will be rocked and rattled, shaked and baked, taken for the life thrilling test drive. To see what your made of.If you manage to stay afloat after this experience, then you are granted a gate pass to the next level, if not, you sink, and remain in the dust of the successful few. Success has a price you know, like everything else in life.

The only difference between success and anything else you buy, is the payment structure. For everything else you pay and receive on the spot or in a few days, for success you pay today in hard work and major contributions and sacrifices, and wait for your turn to receive it, no guarantees!

So why do people still pay upfront for this so called success? with all its pain and hurt, suffering and never clear roads. With all the books and papers, with all that waking up early and focus pokas training. With all those lost friends and fun time, You had to give up so many great activities, including just being a bum! Why?

If you ask me, I can tell you one thing I know, it has a great taste and after taste to it, one that stays long after you digest the fact. Success has a sweet smell and flair to it. Success moves your senses, sometimes you feel areas in your body that you never knew existed. Success is the potion that you rub onto anything you touch and it turns to gold. Success leaves trails and tracks, imagine they are yours? You write it, you ride it. “You can do it!” is one of the many driving factors I used along the way, and I scream out to you all, you too can, so what are you waiting for? start walking that winding road.

They say it has unknown lengths, it does not use miles of kilometers, it uses sweat, hours and more hours,sacrifice, focus, target setting and milestones all mixed up in a big juicer and then whatever comes out is the new measure for that part of the road.

When faced with doubt, doubt that doubt and cross it out. Go with the GROW and follow your gut feelings, your internal success compass knows more than the average friends that surround you, respect yourself and listen to your guiding systems at all times.

“If you want to take your mission in life
to the next level, if youre stuck and
you dont know how to rise, don’t
look outside yourself. Look inside.”

What would happen if an F-16 or a new Jumbo Jet landed in the time of the Romans, or the Pharoe’s or even before or surprised Jenkis Khan during his domination?What would the look on their faces be when they thought their invention of gun powder was the new might and you nuked them? OK that’s mean, how about I take on a whole army with one machine gun and some grenades?

What if I showed them a trick or two with my little toy planes and laser pointers, or stunned them with a Hummer truck, ran them over with a 1940 Panza Tank during one of the stupid wars to take more ground? How about introducing a TV with a DVD player with real people playing a sport which will only be known after another 1000 or so years?

What if I take a photo of them and show them what they look like, how about I introduce the mirror and then shortly after that introduce creams and cosmetics, the Hair brush and comb, the scissors, the electric shaver, the perfume… now you would have to start think marketing here, would it actually be too early for manhood? maybe they liked their stink, they loved their hairy bodies, the ugly nose was fashionable, and so forth.

Now lets dive deeper, if your an average human, you know the house fly, that little pest that comes in and sits on your favorite food or warms itself with your coffee in a cold room, well imagine the technical one made by humans. Now take that and take it only 100 years back to 1910 what do you think will happen to the guys behind the innovations you enjoy today?

What about the small and big creatures we keep finding on our planet? the ones that cant see but have headlights to lure smaller creatures for survival? we still don’t know, but insist on knowing more and more, it never ends, and if it does then you just started to get the big  picture. They say innovate, don’t imitate, irrelevant yet so powerful in its deep meanings.

How about the satellite this and the satellite that? remember back in the 80’s the large formats of videos and arcade games? well how would you like to walk around back then as a teenager with a mobile phone that has it all and so. so much more stuff? What would the fancy cameras and KODAK do when you slap them with a digital photo? And how about that famous TV producer and Hollywood gang do when you dig out of your purse a video camcorder the size of a pack of cigarettes? what would MP3 do to the music industry in the 70’s 80’s and 90’s forget mozart and the other bunch of amazing musicians.

Now when we hold our breath and dive a bit more, i want you to capitalize on this day & ages technological breakthrough’s in medicine and saving people. What would the grandaddy of modern day science Leonardo Da Vinci do with all his breakthroughs, I guess he would be a happy man knowing that he led us so far with so little, great man.

Now lets take a thing we only say WOW! when we see a new model and move on with our day. Back in the early 1900’s or even in the wild wild west days, or take it back a bit to the days of the glorious warriors who rode horses as a mean of fast travel, and you guessed right, drive by them in a Range Rover sport or even a speed bike, forget that maybe just cruise by in a laid back Harley. Would they drop dead in fear?

From telling the time to travel, from our modern day science labs to this computer I type on, from the communication tools we complain about to the small italian espresso machine in my living room, from the iphone to the invention of sushi, take a leap of faith into the future and whatever you have today will be tomorrows joke.

We should be thankful for the wishful thinking of our ancestors and everyone in between, we should thank the thinkers, the believers, the funders, the users, the complainers who made things better, we should thank the pessimists and the optimists, the eager beavers and the thrill seekers, the people who swam against the rising tide, the brave boys that took the lead into the unknown should be recognized not only in text books but in daily newspapers to remind the new generation of what it takes to move on in this mysterious world, we should embed the spirit of evolution in every thing we do, we should ask on a continuos basis: what next?” were do we go from here? were are we headed? and keep moving.

Never underestimate the power of questioning, there is no such thing as stupid questions and ideas, they all mean something, in the end.

An important scientific innovation rarely makes its way by gradually winning over and converting its opponents: What does happen is that the opponents gradually die out. Max Plank

ALBAIK is a fast food company that sells fried broasted chicken meals, it is the pinnacle of success in its industry and has given kentucky fried chicken or KFC a run for its money in Saudi Arabia.

The Ministerial Agency of civil affairs is a government entity that handles the births, deaths and issuance of ID’s & Family ID’s but not the passports. It is the pinnacle of bad experiences.

ALBAIK manages to sell thousands of meals daily across the western region daily in a very affordable, pleasant, value for money fashion. They sell SAR11 meals with their famous unique garlic sauce in record time, every time. They also smile while they work and deliver, sometimes fake, but they smile.

The civil thing place, makes you sweat, literarily, you sweat to deliver your papers, you wait 2 weeks for your ID to arrive from the capital, let me try and contain the issue and show you how they function.

You come in, you take a number to be seen and the requests are written in some kind of maze around the walls, they have 2 information and ticket dispenser workers( who think they own the place)after you have your photos, your file, your copies of old or family ID’s, you are seen by a ministry official, if you are lucky… it takes more than 6 hours of waiting, ok maybe 4 until prayer time, then move on and come back in the morning with a new set of numbers.

ALBAIK: you step up tp the counter, place your order, pay, get your change, look at yor number, notice its far out, have no fear! these are masters of fast delivery and experts of process management, and they fight to get better.

Today:

Civil affairs agency: I arrive at 8:15 am I am already late. The crowds are growing, the noise is growing and the people are wasted. The staff are dead, some still in the process, or pretending to be dead, the numbers front line offices are wearing swine flu masks, very angry faces, extremely angry service people, did I say service( SORRY!).  I am treated badly when I asked a question slightly away from the line( only one guy ahead of me and he was done), I was ordered to get in line if I was to be served.

I asked for delivery area of new ID’s, I get a number 280, I run happily jumping up and down like a 5 year old high on 2 bars of chocolate, really jumping, as high as I could in my saudi gear and head thing, yeeeeha! I’m getting my ID today. Then the shock, the number was 163, that’s ok I thought ALBAIK finishes that number in less than half an hour.

I quickly scan the wide waiting room which can only handle 50 people or so, three windows for delivery, one man standing only. He barely is breathing, let alone moving, he is young, not energetic and extremely slow, just like grandma!

I calculate his handling of one transaction, 10 minutes at least, to deliver a card. I take 280 and minus it from 163 it equals 117 people, only. I multiply that number by 5 minutes, not 10 and the total time I would have to wait on average is almost 10 hours. Not bad for a guy who has only one refined, focused goal in life to get a citizen ID, he would actually be a lucky person. He would only have to wait 10 hours in his whole lifetime, imagine?

Now since we normal people, do have more goals than one, I figured they would shut down for the night, open again in the morning, and still it would not be my turn. And the funny part would be a twist in their ticketing system, valid for one day only!

So if ALBAIK fast food would handle his delivery in 10 minutes per customer, I assure you he would be studied in history books.the actual average time to pas 78 orders today was in less than 25 minutes, you do the math. If a company can do it, I guess a government entity serving people should learn a few tricks, and I bet the staff in that civil place all buy ALBAIK for dinner or lunch.

It only took some old fashioned process engineering and planning, a little bit of this and a little bit of that. If there is heavy traffic, increase manpower! cut the unnecessary work, make it faster from point A to point B…duh!

The irony of the matter is all the people that come into this area of work are doing it for the sake of work, the end user, he is just another number. I accept to become another number, but please do something with the time, I am willing to even pay…. THINK!

Now if you excuse me, its 1.30 in the AM over here, and I have to be at that dreadful place at 6 in the morning, and try to get what’s mine, if I am lucky, good thing I got my sons too so he wont go through the amazing experience I had.

Why don’t they let ALBAIK chicken handle the process for the issuance and delivery of ID cards, just take a visit to one of their offices.

1- Bad location, Bad locations, Bad location

2- Dumb people working like zombies.

3- Not one smile to be seen in a million miles.

4- Extremely bad, extinct dinosaurs working the front desks.

5- Excellent ticketing system that is put there to tell you how slow they are, so they can serve the idiot after you for actually staying the full 6 hours!

Let’s just hope no one from the civil affairs is awake reading my blog, I need to first get my card, then run, and jump in the air like I just don’t care…is this an ID card I’m talking about or the winning 100 million dollar lottery ticket?

And so many more areas that could learn a lesson or two from other areas in life, sometimes even from ants. I know ALBAIK was good tonight, I hope I get in and out in at least 2 hours, imagine someone being happy for being served in just 2 hours.

People; they come in good, bad and disgusting.

Do you use a public bathroom away from home? The one at work? The airport? The fastfood chain? The local mosque? The mall? or are you one of the thousands that just decides to keep it in till your home? A dirty subject but someone has to point out the health and service dangers lurking in the background.

As I approach the toilet in Manchester train station I notice a small que with a coin machine that opens the door “ 3 pounds per visit” WOW! I thought, nice!! before I understood anything about the pay per toilet thing, I was discouraging it due to human rights issues and the mere fact its only human, and you shouldn’t need to pay to go!

But as I picked up milage on both travel and age, I came to realize the brilliance of such practice, simply awesome I say. When I got the change in place and got my entrance to the toilet,I noticed two cleaning ladies and everyone entering respecting the cleanliness of the premises.

Synchronized people, entering, finishing, cleaning in a clean environment and happy for the service provided. No one throwing tissues on the floor, actually finding tissues, available toilet paper by the dozen( the good stuff, not the one that evaporates), soap is plenty, dryers are powerful and by the dozen, no smells, just clean antibacterial detergents and warm atmosphere.

Everywhere you go in Europe there are people taking care of the toilets! It simply makes me feel sad! In one study I read they placed a small picture of a fly( sadly aiming practice for men-sorry girls, men tend to do that) in the urinal bowl so people would stop splashing all over the place. The trial in Amsterdam shciphol airport reported more than 60% less splash rate than before the darn fly! If people go to this extent in serving the bathroom customers, shouldn’t we start to at least come to where they were in the 70’s? and not compare our self to the stone age era?

As you arrive at any of the 3 airports in Saudi Arabia, and you just have to go! you make your way to the very few little rooms that have a semi worn down picture of a woman or man to relive yourself. As you enter thinking it is a rest room as they say politely, you tend to try and hold your breath for as long as it takes, watch out to not touch any visible or invisible germ colony. You also attempt to open the door of the toilet without any hands or feet, I have been known to have opened doors with my butt! Suddenly the 7 hour airplane toilet seems wonderful luxury(even after meal time/ wake up time on the flight).

The look, feel, smell, lack of everything is just amazing. The workers look at you waiting for you to look everywhere for tissues, even in garbage to wipe your hands, then they ask you in a head shaking manner “ do you want?” as they hold out the forbidden fruit of the moment : TISSUES! And you have to tip them for the stinky atmosphere, the smells, the new add on bacteria and germs who you will introduce to your family and friends” let me introduce to my new lethal friends, I picked them up at the local airport toilet, be nice, smile & say hi…come on give them a nice, big hug!”

This is the second ugly face they see of our country when foreigners arrive for the first time, after the airport service, look & feel and treatment, our fascinating, sate of the art, germ in your face, unforgettable aroma, airport toilets! Never have I been amazed at any of the local toilets, except for the very few five star locations, few!

The standard for toilets, is to let the GM of the airport use this one, the one that passengers use and airport staff suffer from, and not his own private washroom. The managing director of the food chain should have his toilet in one of the locations, Banks CEO’s should use customer ones too, and so on.

I know its a dirty little secret only users know of, but we have all faced this and had no time, no idea what to do, no intention to raise such a filthy subject to a company, what will they think of me? THEY HAVE TO WAKE UP AND RESPECT PEOPLE!

Q: Would the manager of whatever firm invite people in his home or his family to this stinky place? and wait to see the look on their face when they come out? I thought so!

Just like Rain happens, natural needs are met, we exhale & Inhale, going to the toilet is one of them! and it should be high on any organization or country agenda, it is service you know, wether we admit it or not!

People will pay to get a better and cleaner environment. If everyone only paid 1 riyal( 30 cents) for each toilet visit, then companies can get better chemicals, better workers, more workers, a daily supply of toilet good paper, maintenance and dryers would all work, people will repspect each visit.

While European countries face their problems head on and give awards to the best toilet in a country, we aim to see who has the filthiest toilet to go unreported and survive without water and toilet paper and other BARE necessities. It is a very strong statement in terms of service and quality, and the issue, or should I say Tissue, will be raised and used

Looks like I need to drink less fluids and eat nothing before coming home on my next flight, at least till I get past any airport facility.

Our mission is to represent the interest and aspirations of ‘away from home’ toilet providers, suppliers and users of all types and to act as the catalyst for change in the pursuit of standards of excellence in all areas of public toilet provision and management.

Back in the days when we liked a song and never knew the name of the artist or song had serious problems, especially when your a teen and want to impress your peers! We used to go to the music shop and try and make the seller who never spoke a word of english in his life try and know what the hell we are talking about.

We would make stupid sounds to try and get the guy to familiarize himself with the song, it worked at a rate of 30% ( do not ask me how I came up with that percentage), he would then start to figure it out and we would walk away looking like retards.

Today, my friends we have something so fascinating that i thought i would love to share with you, for those who know excuse my late response and finding, for those who don’t… you will love me! SHAZAM is a software that actually listens to the song on that radio station, TV or ipod and hook up to the net, search for the song and tell you everything about it, where to buy it and how to download it! all on your phone.

Excuse me but if that ain’t cool what is?

In the old days it was hard, today it is getting cooler and cooler, imagine having to smell those perfumes online? get that cash on your pc? never leave home unless you really want to?

WOW!

Abracadabra I wanna reach out & grab ya!

Excuse me while I make my fast exit today, a great game on TV and its a WEEKEND here!

They used to gather every weekend, we used to accompany them by force, they used to have fun as sisters and brothers with their whole family, they were my aunts and uncles. We were young children then, only observers as they say, we only digested and filtered what we wanted to remember and threw the rest to the cats.

• They used to have fights every week, and meet the very next. We have the same fights, we meet after months.
• The wife has daily battles with her husband, makes up the next day as if nothing ever happened, and does it again & again, we choose the easy way out and divorce one another.
• People took peoples words to the Bank, today we take them to court.
• Simple was king back then, complicated is the way to be today.
• Schools forced us to learn back then, garbage in garbage out, schools are starting to listen in on humans real needs for progress.

• Pepsi and Seven up were icons back then, now its back to basics and natural, how ironic?
• Sell, Sell, Sell was the way of yesteryear, service, service, service is what it is now.
• Expensive travel and phone calls are replaced with train fare air travel and hours of free air time to chat on the phone.
• Post cards are replaced with email messages and sms mumbo jumbo.

• Business was done by long traveling days and exploration, today its B2B without leaving your office.

• Marriage is taken lightly and faster today, it was a life sentence back then, one you wanted to serve the years.
• World domination and cold wars were replaced with strategic political takeovers today.
• Reading was written in finely binded books, you can have the same today in PDF ebooks.
• Food was wholesome, today its the latest version of fresh fast food.

• What was handsome and pretty back then is not so these days, the measures have changed so fast no one knows what to expect.

• Children were fragile in the early years, now they are forming into a stronger kind of children driven by the new fast lifestyles they live today.
• Money was cash and coins, today its electronic.
• Travel agencies were a big deal and actually the only deal, today they are replaced with expedia.com & hotels.com.
• Learning was on campus, today in your pajamas at your mac.
• American muscle cars ruled the planet for more than 70 years, today the far east and Europe are bringing the American car companies to a melt down, They are now starting to listen to their customers like the Japanese did in the 70’s on American soil.
• People had no choice on what to watch except for their countries broadcasting arms, today you can watch a program airing in the US within 24 hours in the Middle East.
• Music was made on LP’s and Cartridge tapes, today its Mp3 electronic music. Movies were on big rolls of film today on DVD and computer files.
• Computers had 128 mb memory, today phones have 4 GB’s of internal memory expandable to 8GB and more.
• Photos were taken and developed in 24 hours, now you can take the same one 100 times and edit it, upload it to the net in less than 2 minutes.
• In the old days the ugly people or so they say, were labeled that for as long as they lived. Today you walk into a clinic and change your look as many times as you wish and have that pointed nose you always wanted or those hairs you longed for after you lost yours.

Back then for me to write to you all everyday would be a killer task, today I write to you in my towel ready for my midnight shower before I sleep and just press publish and its yours!

If back then is now in a few days or years, have a great then & now

Have you ever wondered why there used to be two keys for each car sold in the world? Well have we come a long way since. If you owned a car the thing called “peace of mind” was an option. You would have to fiddle around and try several keys before you find the one that opens the trunk or the front glove compartment!

Why not make keys that dissolve after a year? Well I guess it was too early for me to complain then, the first cars had no keys, they cranked them from the front.

• Cadillac used to try and be unique and give you 2 gold plated keys, woo cool, still two!
• Then I guess came the germans proved their point with a one key car, Voila.
• The world was amazed and suddenly thought! Hey the Germans must be onto something? let’s all make one key cars.
• Suddenly car keys had little lights that could show you where to place the key, instead of scratch the paint around it.
• Then someone said “ will you look at that!, Why not put lights under the door handles? and the light key was history.
• Along came the key that could do many things. This Key could open the compartment inside the car, the other one could pop the trunk.
• Man made great strides forward when the multi function key came out later in the century, long after Henry Ford said Black was the only color available, but you can still have any other color( When we make them). This key could unlock the car, pop the trunk, lock the doors, show a little light to show you more just under the door mirrors, some could even honk your horn to scare off the little brats and cats.
• As man made cars became more competitive, someone decided to give you a key, but let you get in the car with keyless entry! wow! you get close to the car and it opens up as if it knows you, well it does. Inside these cars you push a button and your off.
• The keys were BIg now they are smaller, then they made them BIG again.
• Some are square with no key apparent, you press a button and out comes the key!
• Then came the thumb print entry.
• The world is suddenly introduced to eye recognition entry.
• Fast forward and the car automatically comes to you when you think car, in your after sales brain implanted key.

Do you think soon we will get cars with DNA recognition starting capabilities?Why was the key invented? Don’t they leave their cars open in movies? Ok so people do actually steal our cars, so we lock them. Did you see the amount of technology that goes into keys today, remember that scene in gone in 60 seconds, the one about the mercedes keys, far out!.

So keys do evolve, like many other things in life. As we demand more, the smart makers make the move. In some cases they exceed our expectations, those are the leaders of today in any given industry.

Remember how it was an option to have cup holders in cars?
