In the US, your car really defines who you are... so here are some of the most basic car stereotypes I have seen lately. I spend a lot of time on the road, so I see them all every day. Here are some stereotypes I have seen.
The Engineer
Honda, safe, fuel efficient, good resell value. It was all calculated by the engineer. This is the best combo deal for a car.
The Pizza Boy
This is the oldest piece of shit car. usually really small for the fuel efficiency while delivering pizzas solo. This guy is an expert at navigating the small streets. He'll immediately get pissed and ride your tail if you block him by driving too slow. He's got orders to deliver, Damnit!
The Young Professional
Think Fresh and clean. This college grad just got a job and he's making bank, so he bought a brand new audi 2 door coupe. He can show up to the party with a smokin hot babe and throw the bills around. This guy drives fast and is always in a rush. He weaves through the lanes like a quilt. He usually texts and drives. It's probably a lease
The Rock Climber
Ford Ranger with camper. extra water jugs and fuel tanks. This truck is as dusty as his beard. Hasn't showered in days, has been eating the same meals for 3 weeks as he's been living out of the truck. This truck fits one man... and his dog.
The Hippy
WV bus perfect for concerts. This van is filled up with all the stereotypical hippy stuff.
The Surf Bum
Ford Ecoline. He would have stuck to tradition and bought the VW, but those are expensive and too cliche, so the ford does the trick just as well. It used to be a painter's van, but now serves its purpose well decked out with surf suits and boards. This thing smells like week old sour krout and is so disorganized it looks like tornado hit a surf shop. Long hair don't care!
The Road Tripper
Subaru Outback. If its the weekend, this car is already long gone since 2PM. This guy's out there in the wilderness somewhere, and that trusty old subi is following like a trusty dog.
The Gear Monkey
2018 Subaru Impreza STI. Sporty fast. Usually this guy wears only outdoor gear and has the newest of everything. Everything is well organized and new and clean. Nothing is out of place.
The hipster
Prius 2015. The techie is very aware of the environment. Usually he tries to take public transportation or the google bus to work. But the car is useful to leave for the weekend or go to the whole foods.
The Bro
Lifted Truck Mat black, all aftermarket parts. Fuel economy? what the fuck is that? I don't need that. Loves to accelerate fast and brake fast. Has bumpin speakers and the most fresh music.
The Country Boy
Hand-me down truck ready for a lifetime of country lovin. Radio permanently on a country music station and ready to get rolling on some back roads. Goes well with some whiskey and girl in jean shorts.
The sorority girl
VW beetle or jetta or audi A4. We know she is in a sorority because the sticker on the window says so... and the licence plate frame... and the shirt she is wearing...and the bag in trunk...and the 8 million text messages she is sending about the up coming philanthropy event.
The Soccer Mom
Suburban Doing 30 things at once. Dogs out the window.
The Oblivious
2015 Ford Escape with scratches everywhere and a busted front bumper. Stay away from this vehicle!! You are in great danger. Between texting while on the phone, putting on makeup, and drinking a mocha thai latte frappacina capucino, this chick has no idea she is driving. She changes lanes whether you are in the blind spot or not, because she didn't see you there.
The Old
Buick, Oldsmobile, or Crown Victoria. 50 miles per hour in the fast lane. enough said.
The Ricer
What??.... I can't hear anything because of that loud exhaust muffler.
The Gangster
Chevy Monte Carlo smoking a cigar windows down. Blasting old school rap.
The Gardner
Blasting mariachi music with the windows down and enjoying the life. A lawn mower and ladder are just about ready to fly out the back of the pickup.
