    His Holland is the cool Holland.

    My Holland is where all the uncool Dutch people immigrated 250 years ago to found a religious colony.

    If you keep those lines going west I would say it is #3 in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Up North is pretty much anything north of Green Bay and I would assume it is a similar exercise with the Twin Cities which is pretty much due west of GB

    I would say it's further north in Minnesota than that. I think the most common definition of "Up North" in the state is anything north of Lake Mille Lacs, which is close to line #1.

    My choice was #3. On trips up north, Grayling definitely felt like you were getting up there while just getting to Cadillac didn't feel TOO far away. Also, that #4 line is close to Ludington and that never felt like up north. That was just the beach!

    If you drive an American car, you're a chud by default?

    I drive a Caddilac because I'm old, but I'm only moderately chuddy, and my Hyundai wife negates me.

    I have a Telluride and an Escape so I'm basically MAGA according to this.

    Mercedes being on the left has my spidey sense going off. Every Mercedes owner I've ever encountered has been a rich, entitled asshole.

    it's also a great embodiment of the current political and media climate that the "middle" of the graph isn't in the middle at all.

    Yesterday lil man called me and there were so many cops in a field with dogs searching ditches and then further down an abandoned car. Someone obviously stole it, tried to ditch something during the chase and then abandoned it to go on foot.

    9/10 chance it was probably one of his friends at the rate we are going.

    I'd be really curious so see this chart in other countries. In the UK, Ford is known for the Fiesta and Focus and so I imagine moves left, and VWs are more middle-management cars.
