The how many Camrys did you see on the way to work thread

After a comment made by @Shutter, I got to thinking about just how many of these damn things are really in our cities.


I noticed 6 or 7 during my 20 minute commute this morning.

Exactly! So now I've planted it in your mind, I think you'll see like 47 tomorrow.

One or two.
But ... I did make a mental note of counting how many Darts I saw because there were 3 in a row in front of me in the drive through. The grand total for the 45 minute one way drive was 18.
Not sure if they are giving them away in cereal, they are dirt cheap or I really missed something special when I test drove one but they are starting to rival Mustangs in numbers.

although the nasty prius takes the cake for most cars on the road. When commuting on my bike I probably see about 200 over a 50 mile stretch.

At least here anyway. We like to pretend that we care about the environment.

Sad thing is, in SoCal Orange County there are probably as many BMWs on the road as Camrys or Prii. There are so many damn BMWs that they're nearly invisible. I wonder if BMW drivers know this?

Indeed! If I were to kill a kitten for every bad prius driver on the road... kittens would be extinct. I've honestly never seen a good prius driver.

I see probably 3 or 4 every day in the morning. I do see at least 1 Corolla every single day... I do own one haha

But the number of Priuses/Prii/whatever overwhelmingly outnumber any other car I see on a daily basis. After that, it would be those little Smart cars, then F-150's.
