Have you all noticed that approx: 90 percent of people in the 2nd Gen Solara's are women? I didn't really, realize I bought a girls car until after I bought it, I think this theory does not apply as much to the generation 1 Solara's.
It seems to me especially here in TX, that if you are male you are most often in a truck, this I've noticed has to be much less true for CA and such.
Welcome to SolarGuy, Texan. I'm from Alabama, and our females
here drive trucks as much as the males. I can tell that you are new by your
number of posts (4) as well as by your "observation." First of all, your
statement that 90% of the 2nd Gen Solara drivers are women is without
qualification because you did not specify which 90% of people on which
you based your findings. Is it 90% of the people in Texas, 90% of the
people in the country (which I doubt that your research was so far
reaching) or just 90% of the drivers that you have noticed since you
became one of us. I can only guess that it is my third example, and by
my own personal experience in the world in which I live, I will agree
with you. Nonetheless, you will find that the same is not true of the
members of this forum which seems to include both male and female members
from around the globe. Secondly, I agree with DriDed 100%. Unless your car is PINK
with a MARY KAY sticker on the rear and side windows,
it is probably the least gender-specific item you will ever own.
It is neither male, nor female (although there are plenty of guys who endear them
with a feminine nickname), and if you think you have a "chick" car,
then that's on YOU. My Gen2 Solara is all MALE, and the guys that
I know admire it as much as the CHICKS do. In fact, this
forum (and you are not the first to post such remarks) is the ONLY
place I've even heard this discussion. Enjoy your ride, man,
and forget about what other people think.
