Some drivers might opt for a more reserved monochromatic display while others might opt for a two-toned color scheme with added accent stripes. Most of us see our cars as an extension of ourselves. Does your car have a name? A survey of Louisiana drivers found that more than 70% have a pet name for their motorized transportation. 

There are some people who will tell you that the choice of color for your vehicle will affect your pocketbook in ways you never expected. Some believe vehicles of a certain color are more likely to be pulled over for speeding. While others believe the color of your car can affect your insurance rates. We can confirm, none of that has to do with the color of the vehicle you choose. It is all about how you drive that vehicle.

Speaking of the vehicles you drive where do you think Louisiana ranks when it comes to pickup truck drivers? We can tell you that Wyoming is the state where people drive trucks the most. Nearly 40% of the population in Wyoming drives a truck. In Louisiana, the estimate by iSeeCars suggests that 22% of vehicles on the road are trucks.
