What I love is that despite the fact that these cars are not all “one type” , and in fact are all driven by VERY different people……

You can picture the stereotype for the driver for each car, and you’re probably right.

Likely 95% male, and you can picture the buffoon each one is likely being driven by. Hell you could probably almost guess the colour of the cars.

It is likely a bit of selection bias by cops as well. They target the rich jerks because of the expensive eye catching cars and the truck assholes because they are big and drien bynyokels.

The drunken Camry crew is out there just blending in.

Sure, but it’s mostly selection bias from the other direction.

If I have a need to break the rules and look flashy doing it, I’m not picking the Camry as my car.

If I have masculinity issues and I drink to deal with them because I’m too macho for therapy, I’m not going to drive a minivan.

The Dodge ram is red and I know the guy who drives it and keeps getting DUIs. I’ve offered to share my Uber with him just so he’s not putting people in danger but he just yells “Yee haw, brother”, fixes his greasy mullet, and hops in.

Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Community Guidelines

  • Direct Image Links Only Only direct links to .png, .jpg, and .jpeg image formats are permitted.
