    And my argument is that cars should likewise not be personalized. They’re tools.

      Okay, but you started with “why?”, that’s the question I was answering.

      That’s just your opinion. To me, clothes are tools and there’s no reason to personalize - just wear black everything, that’s what I do. Other people don’t seem to share my opinion and that’s fine too.

        Sure, and I agree with you. I don’t find much value in chasing trends, so I wear something respectable for my line of work and call it good.

        Cars can be more than tools, and at that point I’d understand the OP that it would be weird to switch those between a couple, but I don’t see any reason for that to be the norm rather than the exception, just like chasing trends shouldn’t be the norm.
