True or a sales pitch?

According to a study conducted by GM as part of this year's Challenge X competition:

* Nearly 9 in 10 women (88 percent) say they'd rather chat up someone who owns the latest fuel-efficient car versus the latest sports car.

More pertinent - of that 88%, how many would you want to date?

 

[DrEntropy]

The "nest builders". feh.

I chose from the 12% pool... err...


mebbe I was ~chosen~ by a twelve-percenter.

The Mrs first car was a Datson/Nisson 240Z, moved up to a
Mitzi Starion turbo, then into a Baretta GT and finally
in her old age is driving a girly Jeep Liberty Limited
Edition with full leather interior and 2X-wheel drive(ugh!)

But it WAS her idea to purchase the 69TR6 so I can
forgive her the 2X-wheel girly Jeep.

I'm guessin' she be in the 12% gang.
Might also explain why she never had any children.
Too busy roaring around.

Hmmm, an alternate fuel interest came out with that stat? Kinda like watching a beer commercial where all the party'rs spend an average of 15 hours a week at the gym. No "Bodies by Budweiser" there. :wink:

Well, those stats are just GREAT for us LBC owners...We have all the bases covered... our cars are fuel efficient, sports cars (AND <span style="text-decoration: underline">NOT</span> the latest either!!)

I never put much stock in what GM says. IMHO they are way out of touch with what consumers really want.

Kind of like Bob Dole was when he made his run for office. I worked for GM once, management is five layers deep and, yes, they are clueless. (Aztek, anyone?)
