Funny responses all , gotten quite a few just like the usual - Corvette - Ferrari - kit car etc.
When it comes down to your complete average Joe that knows very little about cars you would be amazed at the level of complete lack of knowledge of any car brands /models.
I worked at a Dodge dealer years ago as a service manager. When customers come in to drop off their key and get their cars worked on you need to fill out a Repair Order (RO) .
On the RO you need - Model year , Make , Model , Color , Mileage etc.
" What year is your car , sir ? "
" This year " That could mean 2009 , 2008 , 2007 or even an early release car like a 2010. Almost 50% of customers would get this wrong when asked it for the first time.
" What model is your car , Sir ? "
" Oh , It's a Dodge " Thinking only to myself ....OK , That's Just F'n great .... he brought in a Dodge to a Dodge dealership , That's what we fix here , not F'n Yugos....
" OK , good , You have a Dodge , Do you know what model it is ? "
" ??? " 25% of customers would not know or would guess wrong what model car they owned when asked the first time.
" What color is your car , Sir ? "
Shockingly , about 5% of customers would not know the answer and would turn to look at the car or go outside to look at it when asked this question the first time. This would just blow my mind every time I saw a new customer do this.
