Clare, MI

Clare, Michigan
Population:3100

This week marks the start of hunting season, and i just happened to find out that Google has released very recent images of Clare, Michigan, covering most streets. Why do I bring those two topics up together? Because Clare is a popular spot for sportsmen to go hunting and fishing.
With small industrial parks in town, Clare is actually a functioning town all year long in its own right. But mention the name, and most people think of men with rifles or fishing poles going there to catch themselves some food. Located in mid-Michigan, we already can assume that it gets cold in Clare, and snow is abundant in the wintertime.We also can assume that domestic cars reign supreme. We would assume correctly.
Of the several dealerships I noticed in Clare, one was a Chrysler emporium,and two were General Motors establishments. This says that Clare does indeed have a decent-sized market and isn't primarily a "used car" town.
As one may expect, pickup trucks are king in this town.In fact, after I tallied up the car count, I was not surprised by any of the top 5 winners.Take a look and see if you are.

1. Ford F-series
2. Chevrolet Silverado/full-sized pickups
3. Dodge Ram/Ram pickup (most built prior to Ram becoming a seperate brand)
4. Chevrolet Impala
5. GMC Sierra
