Being an engineer, I am most loyal to functionality and purpose. I want my Cars to be fun to drive and appreciate the engineering in the cars. I also like to tinker with them so, new automobiles with expensive computer driven diagnostics are a challenge for the home mechanic to service them selves. I also don’t want to live my life the same as everyone else, so driving cars with lower production quantities appeals to me. So, I am kind of stuck on air cooled 911’s and that suits me just fine.
I also like four-wheel-drive trucks, to scratch my off-road urges. Growing up in Colorado, this was Ford country. So, I Used to be a Ford guy, but Ford really doesn’t make a vehicle that can stand up to the functionality and flexibility of the suburban, for my needs, hauling lots of stuff or people. So I am now on my fourth suburban. Because it suits my needs, and it’s generally not “ found off road dead”
My wife was a brewmaster for the Coors brewing Company, so I will admit being very brand loyal to Coors products. I learned a lot about industrial espionage in the brewing business and how Anheuser Bush regularly changed their beer formulas to match the chemistry of Coors products. Since she got all the free beer we can drink, that certainly reinforced my loyalty decisions.
