I had an interview with a Ford vehicle prep company back in '85. I drove a
72 bus.  I felt I was not going to get the job because I had an import.
Later, after getting the job, I noticed that most of the employees drove
GMs and Dodges.  I was the only one that drove imports (bus, volvo and
vanagon).  I guess they hired all kinds...
