For those who aren't in old-line families who happen to come upon an excellent fraternity, it could certainly create the connections to become an old-line family. In southern states that are small (Arkansas, Alabama, Mississippi, and to a lesser extent Georgia and Louisiana) you're known by your family known. They don't need to ask how much your dad makes because they already know it.

Overall, though, it's the bigness of the car that counts the most. Because when something bad happens in a really big car accidentally speeding through the middle of a gang of unruly young people who have been taunting you in a drive-in restaurant, for instance it happens very far away way out at the end of your fenders. It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
