On the other hand ...

I had my "I Love My Corvair" sticker on the back of my 1960 Buick Flxble 
Hearse, and someone commented, "I didn't know Corvair made a station wagon 
?"

This monster, dubbed "Casper the Friendly Hearse," was 20 feet long and 6 
feet high, and weighed about 3 1/2 tons, with a 440 4bbl.  My snowmobile fit 
easily in the back.

Um, yes, Corvair did make a station wagon, but ...  I left it at that.
