What Do Women Want Men To Drive?
Dating Expert Reveals Types Of Cars That Attract Certain Women -
Having trouble on the dating scene or attracting the type of women you seek? The problem, or solution, may be in what you pick your date up in.
Of course, this is not a new concept, but simply driving a nicer car isn't exactly going to attract the exact type of woman a certain man desires, according to dating coach Deanna Lorraine.
So, to help men sort through the ins and outs of the dating scene in regards to automotive choices, LeaseTrader.com gave Lorraine a list of the five most popular cars that men lease, and Lorraine gave her insight into the type of woman that car attracts. They announced the results in a press release Tuesday.
Like it or not, a car is an extension of a man's personality, according to Lorraine.
"A man's car reveals a lot about his personality and values, and may determine a woman's attraction toward him," Lorraine stated in the press release. "Women pay attention to more than just a man's personal looks."
So, what will women make of the make and model you drive?
Chevy Suburban
Men who drive Suburbans are the adventurous type and enjoy spending time with friends and family. According to Lorraine, these vehicles attract women that are family-oriented, down-to-earth and easy-going.
Mercedes S-Class
Men that drive Mercedes S-Class vehicles are classy, successful and stylish and, according to Lorraine, these vehicles attract sophisticated women that are in their late 30s and 40s and enjoy being taken care of.
Ford F-150
Drivers of Ford F-150 tend to be insecure, according to Lorraine, and overcompensate for this by acting tough and driving a "tough" looking vehicle. Lorraine said F-150s attract women that prefer to be protected by a man so they can feel safe.
Corvette
The Corvette is the official midlife crisis car, according to Lorraine, and the men that drive them are conservative but are trying to display their wild side through their car. Lorraine said Corvettes attract women that like bad boys and are probably bad girls themselves.
Toyota Camry
The Toyota Camry is driven by men that are typically solid, reliable and committed, according to Lorraine, and these vehicles attract women that are sweet, level-headed, uncomplicated and undemanding.

What about a Grand Marquis?
Women get disappointed when they see you. A wannabee Lincoln Town Car. Close but no cigar. They wave , tease and then kiss their girlfiend in front of you. [:o)][:o)]
The Ford F150....ROTFLMAO...

Wouldn't surprise me any....[V]
Like it matters![:D]
This should be interesting.[:0]
This is bogus.
I drive a one ton dually. If you ask her it would be because I have a "small package" and I must compensate. The 10-26k pounds I drag around would be irrelevant.
I'm suffering mid life crisis because I like to drive fast in a sports car?
Do a google search on Deanna Lorraine.
SHe has a website and a contact number and addy....tell her its bogus, I just copied and pasted the story...
A few of you seem a tad touchy about the subject....perhaps she is closer to the truth than you want to admit...
What a joke.
Who cares what they want.

No one who drives a truck in this condition is insecure about anything. Faded paint, beat-up body, rust, and dirt. There's nothing insecure or over compensating about it.
EDIT: If a woman is with a man solely based on what he drives, that speaks volumes for the worth of both the parties involved. Unless The woman is with you becasue you have a truck in the previously mentioned condition.
LOVE everything Japanese, have a collection of anime and manga, and are probably into Jap cartoon porn [:D]

The article called her an expert...

According to Google, Deanna Lorraine is a DATING AND RELATIONSHIP COACH
How that makes her an expert on cars and their drivers is beyond me. But thanks for more insight from the "dark side".

in my personal life my vehicle has never made an impact ether way, i had no problems getting a date even if i was hitchhiking
don't know if there is much truth to this article or not, but 99% of the Mitsubishi spyders i see are driven by "HOT" women, and they must like the hunter green ones too

young women seem to like "cute" cars,
the mistu elcipse fits that description (as well as toyota celica, dodge neon, VW beetle (new), etc.)

Tori drove a 97 GS-t Spyder when we met. So I can attest to this one....
The Toyota Camry ..... and these vehicles attract women that are sweet, level-headed, uncomplicated and undemanding.

Well, I have good news for you. Maybe... According to a Ford dealer here in Dallas, come Sept or Oct. Ford will be having a half off sale on all Ford F150 trucks.
yep, you read that right. Take sticker price and divide by 2. Add TT&L and you cand have a new truck.
I am not fond of Ford trucks, however, I would drive a Ford before I ever thought of buying a foreign POS. But 1/2 off makes me pause for a moment. Downside is it's the F150's... Long live Chevy!
Some Ford Dealer had a sale a couple weeks ago, 2008 Ford F150 6 cyc Reg cab, short box, auto trans and a/c for either $9999 or 10,999 Or you could get the v8 w stick for the same price. or something like that.
Why would I want a new truck? Mine runs like a top and will out pull any modern 6 cyl and quite a few small block 1/2 tons, 300-6 y'all. They can keep their new trucks. Mine's paid for and only costs me gas, insurance(cheap), license, and maintenance. A new truck you have all that plus double insurance for full coverage and a $400 a month payment. I think I'm ahead with my old POS.
What if I drove a 1967 427 Shelby Cobra?
It would mean one of two things.
Ether I was stealing it, or I was a rich SOB[8D]
I drive an F-150, because I got a good deal on it, but lately it has been parked because I can't afford to fill the beast up with gas. So, I have been driving my daughters rusty old 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix.[xx(]

As far as trucks, where I live a truck is a part of life, everyone got them, big ones, little ones and medium ones, trucks here is a needed item just like anything else. I brag on mine just to stir up the Dodge and Chevy guys, guys take trucks serious and brand loyalty is heavy among some [:D] Now I do wonder though, why does a city slicker need a 4X4 truck?
How about a Chevy Avalanche which is built on the Suburban frame?
Like it matters![:D]

Says that you lack any taste at all for driving something that ugly.
Attracts women that drinks only Boones Farm Fuzzy Navel, watches Jerry Springer, smokes non filtered Camels, lives in a Double Wide and weights around 325 lbs.
I've had a couple Vettes, can't say a whole lot of good about them other than the older ones look cool, other than that I can't stand them. This was my last Vette,
