I got a Subaru, but they aren't really that common around here ....

I'd say near work, the most common cars are probably Acura TL, Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, 3 series, and E class.

Near where I live, it's a bit more rural, and there are a lot more F150 and Exploders.

Subaru . . Seattle. If you're in Seattle count how many Subarus you see, it is amazing.

I live in S Korea and that's definitely the case. Lots of boring Hyundais, Daewoos, Samsungs and Kias in either white, silver or black.

wtf are you talking about? none of those would be a hippie's first choice of car.

Its not the 60s anymore - hippies don't drive around in VW vans anymore. Todays hippies are a modern variety - they might look like a normal person walking around the streets, but they'll still cry that you're hurting a tree, scream about peace and all that other hippy stuff. Back in the 60s it wasn't hippy-cool to complain about carbon emissions, now it is.

It takes a trained eye to pick out the neo-hippy, but don't worry...that's why I'm here!

In Manassas I honestly dont think theres any one car that is most common. We have assloads of old Virginia money driving Lexus and Audi alongside buttloads of illegal aliens driving Toyota Tercels and 30 year old Ford pickups.

I would suggest that small Toyotas are the most common overall. Things like the Prius, Rav4 and other smaller sedans.

Unrelated topic: I have seen more and more cabbies around here using small to medium SUV's like Nissan Muranos and Toyota Highlanders.
