Wheels24 is a South African automotive publication. They recently had a reader poll (and I am sure it returned 95% reliability at confidence intervals of +/- .5%), that asked readers to cite the gayest, the straightest and what a corrupt politician would drive. While I am surprised the the gayest list isn’t comprised entirely of VW products, I am even more surprised that people thought, oh yeah, Corolla, most certainly a straight car.
The full list is below

1. Peugeot 207 Coupe Cabriolet: 8706 Votes
2. Audi TT Roadster: 2 287 Votes
3. MINI Cooper: 2 046 Votes

Ford Ranger as the #2 straight car?! WTF?!
That’s prime dyke vehicle material right there.

Is it bad that I would still drive 4 out of the 5 gay cars?

I wouldn’t say it’s bad, but it certainly says something about you.

The Ford Ranger, made in the “to-closed-in-2009″ Ford plant in St. Paul, Minnesota.
Also, the Cadillac SRX was the car which the former Superintendent of the Minneapolis Public School system had the district lease for her — when she was fired for minor corruption and incompetence issues, the district had to get rid of the car with more than a year left on the lease.
Just random mindless facts.
