So, on the advice of an autocrossing friend, I went to 
http://cartalk.cars.com/Survey/Results/Psychographics/caroscopes.html
and completed the Car-o-Scope.  Basically you answer 
some silly (and some not so silly) questions, and they 
compare your answer to their database of other car 
owners and decide what you should be driving.

I was already expecting it not to be particularly accurate--
after all, the MR2 owner who said it was fun was matched 
up with a Jeep and a Miata friend was matched up with a 
mini pickup--but a PEUGOT 505?!!  C'mon--can you REALLY 
see me in that car?  Can you even autocross one of them?  
On the other hand, it also put Mustang, VW Corrado, and a 
Probe (Eric says I have to 'fess up and say it's second ranked 
car for me was a Buick Roadmaster.  I don't know what that is, 
but I'm guessing I should be insulted by the way he's rolling on 
the floor laughing.)

That's o.k., though, because they say Eric belongs in his GMC 
Safari minivan--except he's not educated enough for it! ( :  Woo 
hoo--I think the purchase of the Dodge truck of my dreams is 
becoming more and more likely every second...  

Help me out here and either 1) e-mail Eric (ewc4@juno.com) 
about how he's such a minivan kinda guy or 2) complete your 
own Car-O-Scope and e-mail him to tell him how you were 
perfectly matched up with some cool car.
