2018 GMC Acadia here and I feel exactly the same about the minivan! Probably says I’m an average person.... I don’t think anyone sees me trying the car and gives it a second thought. I blend right in. |

2013 Town and Country minivan.
Probably says - I have a lot of kids and/or shuttle around a lot of kids. It also probably says I don't make enough money to have an Odyssey/Sienna and had to settle for a lower grade minivan. What DCUM would add: I am not cool and have given up on life for driving a minivan. Reality: I only have 2 kids, but I drive carpools all of the time. I could have gotten a Honda/Toyota with less features (which were important to me) so I got the folly loaded T&C, and I never was cool. |

2016 Range Rover
It says we are neoconservative businessmen. It's our only car (walkable NYC suburb) and we drive maybe 3 days a week. Leased, have no idea why people spend 100k+ on something they're just going to have for 3 years |

I drive a 2009 Honda Accord.
Simple - No bells or whistles. It states that I want a reliable, Japanese car but cannot afford a newer one. After years (!!) of dealing w/American cars that kept breaking down + co$ting me a ton in repairs, it finally feels awesome to own a car that doesn’t need to spend 1/3 of its life stuck at the mechanic shop. |
| If you asked me one month girl, I would’ve said a 2004 Toyota sienna. Today a 2019 Honda Odyssey. It just tells you that I’m boring and predictable and like the practicality of a van for carting people and things |
2013 Subaru Outback. Hello, fellow suburban mom! |
Because when they buy they plan to keep it longer than 3 years. |
I gave birth during a major snowstorm (precipitous labor, baby arrived 20 minutes after we got to the hospital). Luckily my husband drives a Silverado! |
|
Dented 2008 Subaru Outback.
It says: I don’t give AF (don’t care about appearances or pickup!) |
| 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee. People probably think I am a soccer mom. No kids, just 2 dogs 60+ lbs each so they fit well. Drive it because its big. I grew up in a city and didn't start driving regularly until I was in my 30's. My job takes me down 95 regularly to Richmond. I like to be in a bigger vehicle. |

2015 blue Dodge Journey
It says that we have kids and don't make a ton of money. It secretly also says that DH is really tall and surprisingly few models fit him. |
Drive a 10 year old Saab 9-3 with electronically modified engine (tuned) to 300 horsepower with more torque than most (non-turbo) V6 engines. Says that I like older cars, like to be different, but can still surprise (and annoy) German lux-car owners. Oh, did I mention it has a manual transmission?

LOOOOOVE Saabs! |

| 2013 Nissan Leaf. It says I haven’t bought gas in 5 years, but I’m too cheap to pay for what i really want (Tesla). |
