Mineral Wells, Tx
Population: 16,700
They often say that trucks dominate in Texas. They mean it.
I always liked the name "Mineral Wells" since it sounded like an old frontier town in a cowboy movie. In a few places downtown, you could probably actually film a western movie. But nobody rides horses there. Instead, people drive pickups.My estimation is that 65% of the vehicles are pickups, but it could actually be more.
Most surprising was the presence of enthusiast cars. Lurking between the pickups were a few Miatas, Mustangs,Camaros and 1 or 2 Datsun Z-cars. as someone who likes automotive variety, it satisfied me to see the pickups counterbalanced (though in far fewer numbers) by something completely opposite.
Country musician Joe Diffie sang that "There's something women love about a pickup man". If thats true, we may have found a vacation spot for single ladies.
