Yet a large number of women purchased a car called a Probe...so I'm not sure you can count on the name factor. images/smilies/smile.gif

Hey the Probe was a good car! It was just cursed with a name. A verb. Consistently used to describe encounters with aliens.

LOL it's hard for me not to say "anal probe" when I see one.

I'm sure people know, but the probe was to be a mustang replacement (in fact it was going to be called Mustang) but the fans howled enough to prevent the death of the rwd stang. Problem is there aren't enough mopar fans left to save the Demon.
