Results: Survey reveals how beloved cars are by their owners

A poll of 2,000 U.S. drivers revealed just how dedicated people are to their cars and how dearly they miss what they first drove. Baby boomers (91%) and Gen Xers (89%) especially have a fondness for their first cars. Nearly nine in 10 Americans still remember their first car — and 60% of them wish they could go back in time to take better care of it. Which of these apply to you?

Commissioned by Castrol and conducted by Talker Research, the survey showed "car lovers" were also found to be more likely to name their cars than "car likers" and "car dislikers" (49%, compared to 20% and 14%, respectively). Have you ever named any of your cars?
