[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]there’s a tribe identity for Jeep, Subaru, and Volkswagen that people really want to join in on as part of the way they see themselves.  jeep is obviously cashing in on that and of course the wagoneer nostalgia and minivan avoidance syndrome which I totally get. I’m not sure it’s that different than the new vw van hype.

I’m a Toyota minivan mom - three kids - love the hybrid mileage, service and reliability.  [b]But we all brand identify somehow[/b]![/quote]

No, actually, we don't. Some of us just buy cars based on price, safety ratings, and availability. I always buy used and while I do have some brand loyalty based on bad experiences with cars in the past (I'll never buy another Ford after a station wagon that had constant problems that required dealer visits) but it's not being a certain kind of person.

I think the tendency to self-identify with car brands on a personal level is a bit weird. I mostly view cars as a way to get from point A to point B. I don't need my car to say anything about me.[/quote]
