Interesting proverb.
I generally don't consider myself a "car guy", but I would say that my primary focus is automotive (cars & heavy trucks). I generally build whatever strikes my fancy. In addition to automotive subjects, I have built aircraft in 1/144 & 1/48, helicopters, 1/700 ships, and Star Trek kits. I used to do some military, but some of the military modelers really take all the fun out of it.
