Why Are Truck Names Conservative?
« on: July 29, 2013, 02:05:28 PM »
Have you ever noticed that popular truck names have a conservative ring to them?

For example:

Chevrolet Silverado
Dodge Dakota
Dodge Ram 2500
Ford F-250
Ford Ranger
Honda Ridgeline
Nissan Titan
Toyota Tundra

From a marketing perspective a truck's name is suppose to sell "Rugged," "Hard Working," "Tough." These are all words associated with conservatives.

If you were going to market trucks to liberals, what names would have more appeal?

Chevrolet Silver-handout
Dodge Acorn
Dodge Donkey 100 (hybrid)
Ford FU
Ford Yonkers
Honda Cokeline
Nissan Union Official
Toyota Protected Swampland

Can you think of any other good names for trucks for liberals?

I'd suggest the Metrosexual for them, except Geo already tied up half of it.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
