I found this Car-O-Scope on cars.com where you can be "evaluated" as to how well you fit your car. I thought this was hilariuos and would forward the link (at bottom of page) in case anyone wanted to try it. I laughed the whole time I was reading the results. Especially the car recommendations, I mean really, Me in a Dodge Stealth? It is funny to read your results though, it can lighten your day a bit.
Here is mine:
Boy oh boy, Bryan, you picked a vehicle that just isn't quite right for you, although you're reasonably compatible in terms of your age, status consciousness, your income, and how much you really care about your car.
When compared to other people who drive a BMW 3, you're a little too much of a risk-taker, you're more generous than other owners, you're just too educated to be driving a BMW 3, and you are much more objective and logical
You certainly are a bit of a nut case, aren't you, when it comes to taking chances (well, at least compared to other BMW owners). Calm down. CALM DOWN! It's not the end of the world, for heaven's sake. And nobody is asking you to change anything about who you are. We'd never do that. Go ahead. Jump off a cliff if that's what makes you happy. But, if this is really what you are, you're gonna have to change vehicles.
Compared to most other BMW owners, you certainly aren't the type who squeezes a nickel to see if the buffalo will cough up a dime. No, not you. Quite the contrary. Let's face it, you're far too generous a person to be driving a BMW. So continue to "cast your bread upon the waters," and Car-O-Scope will find a vehicle that's more compatible with your generous nature.
Some of us have an overdeveloped left brain, and some have an overdeveloped right brain. And your strength is definitely on the left: logic and objectivity. This is not a bad thing. We do need rocket scientists. But it makes you somewhat incompatible with your BMW. Other BMW 3 owners are a bit more "touchy-feely" than you. But you are what you are, so take your pick: Change what you are or get a new car. (That rhymes, doesn't it? Oops, that's a right-brain thing. Sorry.)
Car-O-Scope Makes Suggestions for More Compatible Vehicles
Have no fear, Car-O-Scope is here to save you from a life of misery, depression and hemorrhoidal flare-ups. Through a secret and proprietary process (patent pending) the official car-o-scope has determined that your psychographic and demographic profile is far more compatible with the following vehicles: some of these suggestions might surprise you. But try to keep an open mind. It's quite possible that the car-o-scope has discovered some hidden and/or repressed aspects of your personality.
1. Volvo 760
2. Dodge Stealth
3. Saab 9000
4. BMW 528
5. Toyota 4 Runner
