It took me a while to get going today and the word my hint gave me – BEETLE – didn’t help much, as Beetle Drive is a game. Fortunately, another hint set me on my way: there’s no game called BRONCO Drive.

From the Chevrolet IMPALA to the Ford MUSTANG, American car manufacturers love naming their AUTOMOBILES after members of the animal kingdom, particularly land animals or sleek aerodynamic creatures like the Baracuda or Falcon.

This is not the case in Europe, where they like giving their different models letters and numbers, winds or made-up word-sounds containing the letter Q. The exception, is of course, the Beetle, which was originally called the Volkswagen Type 1 until its nickname stuck.

How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.
