When the town is rejuvenated, the cars promenade down main street. Back in the day before cable TV, shopping malls, and the Internet, a popular social activity was for teens was to slowly cruise down main street (with such streets often being referred to as "the drag"). This was the central theme in the film American Graffiti (1973). By the 1970s and the appearance of custom low-riders, many of which had hydraulic lifts, this activity was revived among the Latino community, which was personified by the Latino car character in this film, who definitely had the coolest street car. It was the inspiration for the 1975 hit song Low Rider by the band War.
