License and Registration, Please

I just read an interesting post over at a blog called Lifehacker. They report that a company that helps insurance companies quantify risk - ISO Quality Planning - has put together a list of the most and least ticketed vehicles in America.



The top spot on this list belongs to the Hummer H2 and H3. Rounding out the top 10 are Mercedes, Toyota, Subaru and Audi. I also got a kick out of the fact that pretty much every Scion - xA, xB, and tC - is on the 10 most ticketed list too.

In closing, I'd like to point out that McEleney dealerships sell 8 out of the top 10 least ticketed vehicles.

What does that mean in the end? Well, not much I guess. But it's interesting.

Not to be negative but another list that always seems to catch my eye is the Most Stolen Cars in America.

The NICB list is based on information reported to the National Crime Information Center.

Here are the 5 most stolen vehicles as reported by the NICB — the number in parentheses is the model year most stolen:

  1. Honda Civic (1995 model)
  2. Honda Accord (1991 model)
  3. Toyota Camry (1989 model)
  4. Ford F-150 (1997 model)
  5. Chevrolet C/K 1500 (1994 model)
So if you've got a 1995 Honda Civic you better buy The Club, get a lock on your garage, or better still stop by and see us in Iowa City or Clinton and trade it in!
