What Your Man’s Car Says About Him

November 17th, 2011 - By Kschlicher

"hes planning for the future"
1. He’s planning for the future

You might have a responsible, realistic future man on your hands if he drives something practical like a grey or blue sedan in their original colors, the kind of cars you see everyday and don’t look twice at.  He probably spends little on accessorizing his vehicle other than tinted glass, good for children also, to make it more comfy. He is most likely a man dedicated to other priorities, such as his career, his savings, his Ikea-furnished apartment, his dog… and yes, eventually his wife. This man is comforting, mature, rarely exciting and, unfortunately, usually taken.

    This is probably the most asinine thing I’ve read in recent times. The worst part, is that someone out there is actually taking this seriously.

    My car is for transportation. It cost $38 a week to drive vs the $100 it used to cost me to fill my truck. The lotion I keep in my car is to prevent me from being ashy. I can rent a sports car or luxury vehicle if I ever need to and I do for out of town trips.

    Some of this stuff is true and some of it is just reading
    into cars (toys) a bit much. The list is worded correctly in that these
    characteristics may ‘say something’ about a man but no one should JUDGE the man
    by them alone. Most of my friends actually live better than their cars would suggest
    but there are definitely exceptions. I actually think if women went by this
    list instead of simply judging and sometimes choosing men according to their
    cars (at least initially) then we’d be better off.

    One thing that women should remember is that men (no
    matter what age) who aren’t currently established are likely driving cars that
    they wouldn’t necessarily choose if they had it their way. In these cases
    ladies should probably peep the way they treat their vehicle more so than what
    kind of vehicle it is. I live in a major city so right now it’s all more about
    efficiency (gas mileage, easy to park, paid for) than style. Still, for a lot
    of guys it’s as Dave Chappelle once said: ‘guys get nice cars because we know
    WOMEN like nice cars.’ So take heed to this list but judge slowly because every
    situation’s a little different.

    Lmao.. this is why black women are doomed if u take this list seriously..

    • Jwade

      This was written..I assume for all women. If any woman relies on this information, then they might be doomed. Not JUST black women.

    Comparing a man to his car is tricky and varies from person to person. My dad (and currently married for 31 years now) is a mustang fan and has two, so naturally I eventually bought a sports vehicle as well because I grew up learning about fast cars and the importance of taking care of and appreciating cars. President Obama’s car in college was a beat-up old car, but as First Lady Michelle Obama mentions, she saw potential in him and now they both experience the chauffeured lifestyle. Also, I think that age is a factor as most college students take whatever gets them from point a to b, vs. 5 years after recieving a degree, working, and able to afford a more desirable car. I think its important to judge the person’s overall lifestyle (education,job,money managment, character) rather than just his car.
     
    Now if you see a 30 year old man driving a 1995 ford explorer on 2011 22′ inch rims, thats when you run. lol

      Great point- I’ll add to it. My co-workers drives a 94 accord- Not really beat up but old and doesn’t fit his style at all. (The man is dressed well every day) I recently found out through my manager- Dude owns 13 rental properties!! I guess cars are only some men toys, not all.

    I must say this has to be the worst psychological review based on men and their vehicles respectively. So if my man doesn’t like toys in the car, has no trash in/out, washes it faithfully on Saturday and his glove box isn’t ready for me to pry into then I potentially have a bad apple.

    Then that’s too bad since our children are grown responsible adults and we have been married over 25 years. Why does a physical item have to be a test? Test yourself and not the other person, obv whoever conjured this ‘study’ up has insecure issues. My husband drives an Audi A8, I a regular suv he must think less of me. That’s why he bought me a house for our anniversary last year, I am so mistreated!

      Who cares what you have obtained. You’re an older woman on a website speaking to strangers about your material possessions or lack thereof. This is not relevant to the article at hand.

  • Hmmmmm

    How is this any different from judging a woman on how she dresses? 

  • Charlesstewart1964

    Wow, judging a man by the car he drives must be the latest technique of how to find the right man.  It also a sign of women not having a clue on finding the right man.  Men and cars is a relationship that is establish when we are kids.  The type of cars we love are established when we are kids.  I believe with men, cars fall into one or two categories; convenience and/or hobby.  The type of car a man drive is a very tiny expression of who he is inside. For a woman to judge a man simply by the car he drives is stupid, it like judge the entire book by only looking at the cover, but never reading the words.
