The Flying Cars Tribe has parked us for an inordinate amount of time in the lot of Future Car, wherein there is lots to see and mourn for:

Motor cars are the symbol of the American dream and their design is a reflection of American society, which means that the 1970s had some serious problems. The Space Age had much more fun with the automobile. Then cars were Yank tanks with steel breasts and were built so solid that the difference between them and light armour was a point of view. Engines were ever more powerful and speed seemed certain to hit the asymptote of the curve any day. Fins were everywhere and fins were king.

Going up (in a hierarchical parlance) brings us to Tales of Future Past with even more stories and images from the bygone days that should be now.
