The "high school vehicle of choice" seems to be HIGHLY culture, class, and
locality dependent.  It depends on whether you're going to be "evaluated" on
what your vehicle can do (rich kids and their sports cars), what you can do
WITH your vehicle (trucks), or what you can do TO your vehicle (assorted
home-modified things, but especially low-rider types.)  This seems to
continue well on past high school, of course, or there would only be one
kind of car...
