What does the selection of a car tell about a person?

[Dave McClung]

My daughter, Jenna, just got a new car. This picture is Jenna and Pamela with Jenna's new Hummer.

Nice looking!

The selection says Jenna has lots of money for gasoline!

[Gina Stevenson]

Not only the gasoline $$ mentioned, but one's tastes in looks, usage need, etc ... if they have sufficient resources to pick accordingly.

Otherwise, it often only tells one's financial condition ... having nothing to do with their tastes ... when one must just get what they can afford. You see, I see some Navigators or Durangos, and some other forgotten SUVs out there that look like something I would love ........... However .................. ;)

... my Bronco II ['86] sits in the driveway needing help. :rolleyes:

PS * Since Jenna's is a new vehicle, I'd say red -- since colors say a wee bit about us -- might indicate Jenna's not quiet ... outgoing ... etc. NICE-looking HUMMER, BTW. ;)

Very nice Dave. Lovely daughters and a cool car!

Believe it or not, auto manufacturers have been after the female segment of the marketplace for a long time.

Here is one of the most famous advertisements of all time...

...from 1923.

I don't recall seeing a Jordan. I assume that the ad didn't work very well.

It says she's not planning on shipping the car to Europe and having a vacation there with it. We're at US $ 6.40 per gallon right now.

Wanna look at some nice cars and motorcycles?

My brother-in-law, Otis Chandler, passed away in February. You can see some of his cars at this site. Also some motorcycles.

[Marg Webb]

Love it. --- I would say an Athletic person would choose this car or a very careful person that will drive through a lot of bad weather.
I love it and that would be my choice, except I don't think I could get into the thing now. To high.

It says to be that she knows what she wants and then goes out to get it, (in a Hummer). I feel safer in a larger vehicle. I drive a Dodge 4X4 with a hemi. (yeah I buy a lot of gas, don't want to hear it) Dana will tell you I do need four-wheel-drive to get home in the winter.

That is a beautiful hummer, love the bright red.

Amen to that!! Doris lives at the top of a very high hill in Sistersville. I've often wondered how even a 4-wheel drive would do if that road was icy and snowy. Yes, they definitely need 4WD in the winter!! What is really neat about where they live is if you don't want to walk up the hill on the main road, someone has constructed a concrete staircase that leads you to close to her house.....I wish I lived near those steps, Doris -- what great exercise that would be!! Do you know how many steps?

HOW MANY STEPS? Are you kidding me, I don't know. If the good Lord had wanted me to walk the steps He would never have let me buy that truck. I'm just kidding. When I walk I walk up the hill, I don't use the steps. I did when I was younger and I'm sure I counted them then but don't remember now. Since my hip surgery I'm really not supposed to do steps.

My hill is sssooooo steep - How steep is it? On winter I was going to work and we had an ice storm during the night (which I wasn't aware of). When I pulled out of my driveway the Bronco stated rolling down the hill when I still had it in reverse. I didn't stop until I was at the bottom and there is a sharp turn on the way down. That is the only time I've been scared driving on the hill.

This photo tells me I chose the wrong Car

I should not have chosen a small based SUV for a road trip
especially should not have traveled with a heavy loaded top carrier

I am only by the grace of God

alive!!
