Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. If the manufacturers at Dodge were to think of a car name while watching a cloud form extending over a large area at altitudes of usually 2000 to 7000 feet (600 to 2100 meters), what would they think of?

Answer: Stratus

The Dodge Stratus comes in Coupe and Sedan models, neither of which can get up to 2000 feet in normal circumstances.
2. If the men and women of Toyota were to somehow come up with the design of a car from a set of numbers arranged in rows and columns to form a rectangular array, they would name it what?

Answer: Matrix

Luckily, the Matrix does not look like it was made out of rows and columns. And the word is the Keanu Reeves does not own a Matrix, but he knows quite a bit about it.
3. If someone wanted a Mercury in which they could roam about and raid in search of plunder, what would they undoubtedly buy?

Answer: Marauder

I wouldn't try marauding too many things in a Marauder, you won't be able to outrun the police in the least.
4. Honda always thinks about their customers when building cars, so it was obvious they named this vehicle when they realized that the buyer would be the one employed to steer the ship.

Answer: Pilot

At least Honda doesn't have a car named the Driver. That may have been a little too obvious,
5. What would the Subaru be called if it lasted long enough to be something transmitted by or received from an ancestor or predecessor or from the past?

Answer: Legacy

Even though it most likely won't make it long enough to become a legacy, with limited usage and good preservation, it could be.
6. If Mitsubishi were to make a car during the night when the total or partial obscuring of one celestial body by another was occurring, what would it be named?

Answer: Eclipse

However, the Eclipse was mostly designed and manufactured during the day when there was no eclipse. Otherwise there would be very few in existence.
7. If you were attempting an act of scaling especially the walls of a fortification with a Cadillac, what vehicle would you be using?

Answer: Escalade

Before you get any ideas, let me remind you of the blatantly obvious: keep your Escalades on the ground.
8. If you were using a Ford to avoid a threatening evil, you would use what model of car?

Answer: Escape

You could use an Escape to escape evil, but if I had to choose a Ford, it would be a Thunderbird.
9. If you were gathering up a collection of Nissans to create a large force or group usually of moving things, of what make would you buy plenty of?

Answer: Armada

But, the Armada doesn't exactly come stockpiled with any weapons, so if your armada of Armadas needs to attack something, you'll need to fit it yourself.
10. If you are a ranch hand who takes care of the saddle horses, what kind of Jeep would be perfect for you?

Answer: Wrangler

In fact, of all of the cars in this quiz and the wording of the question, this one makes sense the most. A wrangler with a Wrangler would be perfect out on the ranch.
