Within 8 months we were already getting flyers from the dealership trying to get us to come trade in our still-new car for a 1-model-year-newer version of the exact same thing. They even had (apparently) attractive financing options for that sort of thing. Really struck both of us that they'd even bother. It means that people must actually do that.

I dated a girl once that had purchased a new Chevy Aveo (before I met her). She brought the less than 2 year old car in for an oil change, and left with a brand new... Chevy Aveo. She liked the color better on the new one.
That's a minor reason I broke up with her. The fact that she'd associate with a guy like me was the major reason.
