Cars in The Outsiders
In The Outsiders, cars are an interesting subject. Cars seem to be a big part of life and most of the greasers, like Steve and Sodapop, love cars.
In this story, only the Socs seem to have tuff cars. This shows the contrast between the Greasers and Socs and how only the Socs are fortunate enough to have cool cars of their own.
Corvairs and Mustangs
