So I’m heading to the game tonight, and pull up behind a Mercedes (sp?) at the light. It’s a nice looking car, but it’s name surprised me. Imagine driving around in a Benz “Kompressor”!   For some reason, this car doesn’t strike me as very safe. I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be compressed by any vehicle, much less the one I own! “This car is the Kompressor”. The marketing campaign seems like it would be tough also. What were the Car-name thinkers….ah…..thinking when they came up with this one?!  If anyone has a good explanation for this, I’d love to hear it.  


Side note: How cool would it be to get paid to name cars! There has got to be someone that has that job. There are paid ice cream taste-testers, I saw it on TV. (Rock solid dependable information right there.) So you know there has to be a car-naming guy.
