15. Not shabby for someone who didn't get into corvettes until the 7th gen.

Quiz was way heavy on early Corvette knowledge.

19 of 20. I guess after owning 39 of them from all 8 generations I learned a little. Still learning though.

14/20, luckily I guessed right about 5 times, lol… I guess owning the same corvette for 30+ years doesn’t make you a fan.

11/20, and I consider some of that luck because I only started learning about Corvettes when I discovered they are now mid-engine; however, I don't think this question was graded properly.




According to Popular Mechanics:

The Chevy Suburban holds the record for being the longest-running nameplate in production. The first Suburban was produced in 1935 and has been in continuous production since...
Are the quiz designers asserting that a Chevy Suburban is a truck, so it isn't a passenger car?

The Suburban is built on a truck chassis.

Yep, it's a truck.
