What Is Your Car Telling People?
Did you know that your car is talking? That’s right, your car is saying a great deal about your personality and attitude. It’s true we are what we drive. Car enthusiasts even admit that our vehicles are a window into our souls.
Carmakers admit that minivan sales have declined partly due to the fact that people don’t want that mommy-mobile image. Ford and GM have completely given up on minivans for this reason and are just focusing on crossovers.
In our culture of cars, drivers idealize their vehicles and even give them qualities that are human. For example, when hypnotized motorists will refer to their vehicles as if they are their friends. People even give their cars a name and talk to them. Also, people try to pick a car that has attributes that mirror their self-image. For instance, a person who thinks of themselves as outdoorsy buys a vehicle that is rugged.
So, the next time you purchase a vehicle and an auto warranty you might want to consider what your vehicle is saying. Your car might be telling people more than you would like them to know.
