Imlay City, Michigan
Population: 3600
Imlay City is a small town located in Lapeer County. This is one county away from the Flint metropolitan area, so we can already assume that General Motors products are king of the road. But they aren't. Yes, Chevrolet full-sized pickups seem to be everywhere, but the Chrysler vans are an apparent tie for the #1 spot.Both are neck-and-neck in a town assumed to be a GM stronghold.In fact, the Ford Focus and Ford Explorer could very well outnumber all GM cars except for MAYBE the Malibu based on my observations.
And the F-150 looks to be the 3rd most popular, behind our first-place tie.Are the GM employees moving out of the area? Or is the loyalty just dying off? Regardless, Chevy doesn't really win since the trucks arent exactly the most popular by any margin, and more Fords than than Chevrolets look to be the top models here. Perhaps it is simply because Imlay City has a Ford dealership and people shop there because it is the most convenient?
UPDATE: I realized that the Ford test track in Romeo is not very far away, so there are probably people affiliated with Ford living here in significant numbers.
Suspected top 5 in Imlay City:
1.Chrysler Vans
Chevrolet full-sized pickups (too close to put one over the other in the lead)
2. Ford F-series
3. Chevrolet Malibu
4. Ford Explorer
5. Ford Focus
