proud to say I'm in the top 1% (though I guessed on the vehicle population quanity question and missed the meals eaten in cars. I often lunch in my truck at job site, I am not a McPig) http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif

I got 77%, but missed the one about who Chevrolet was named after. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif I always thought it was a French guy. I should be banned from this board. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Missed cup holders (who gives a rat's a$$), first year of smog, meals in car (who gives a rat's a$$), and one other dumb one.

70%. Cup holders is the best they could do? Always go with your first guess, that cost me a few but it's a better score of what I know vs. what I guessed.

87% I too missed the cup holders and first year of smog (why did they call those things smog pumps on Chevys?).
I also missed the Zamboni chasis, too trivial even for me.

77% here for a 38 year old. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif I missed the cup holders, and the Hemi, I knew smog in Cali. in 66, and thought all else was 68'. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif I will take my 77%. I passed!!!!!!!!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

83%,not too bad considering we dont have interstates here in Canada. Too many VW bus with smog equiment and cup holders on a Canadian Road.
Why are the highways in Hawaii called Interstates? Does Alaska have an Interstate?

Maybe if my car had a cupholder, I'd know how many meals I need to eat there!

77%. blew the smog question, jumped on 1966, also chose the 59 Cad over the 60 Lincoln as the longest.
