And to go along with cortcomp's thinking, I believe even then there was a lot of keeping up with or even one upping the Jones' mentality. Just coming out of the depression, lowly Chevys were sixes but "we're buying a Packard now and if we can afford it why not". I expect the extra horsepower could also have been a factor for the man of the house.
