I also live in the country; you're crazy to think that a Honda won't be a target for rednecks. "Look thar at that mini-civic. It's just a' askin' to get warshed in some brake fluid..."

Besides, the point isn't about demographics of economics or region; it's about age. Young people envy people with nice cars, and do the little things they can to destroy said cars, whether by stealing or just hurting them. Don't say you weren't warned, but if you take it to school, prepare to have it keyed, egged, kicked, spit on, who knows what else. I've seen just about everything - from country-ass neighborhoods to really upscale ones. It's universal.
