Does your personal car play a role in your business?

[AubreyJ]

Hey everyone, haven't posted here in a while (though I still lurk on a regular basis) but I had an interesting discussion with my dad this morning and would like to hear your input--I apolgozie if I put this in the wrong section.

A little backstory- I am 22 years old and have been driving a 2010 V6 Camaro since I graduated high school. I love this car- I payed for it myself, modded it myself..etc. But, I am starting to feel like I've outgrown the Camaro. Not only that but I feel like I need something bigger (or at least one with 4 doors) to transport my dog more easily and one I can put a hitch on to transport my road bikes. Anyways, I've always wanted a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, and now that I've finally decided to trade cars and I can afford a car a bit more expensive (I am looking at $30K) I am really leaning towards getting one.

Well, this morning I was discussing the car purchase with my dad who really disliked the idea of me getting a Jeep Wrangler, his reasoning was that me being a young female, a Wrangler will scream "immaturity"- While a more mature SUV or Sedan will be better for business.

My argument was- Well, I am young, and if people want to make assumptions, than let them- but it was his last comment that really got me. He said that a Wrangler is a Fun vehicle first and then a work vehicle second, while I need a work vehicle first and a fun vehicle one second. And that since my businesses is still relatively new, that I need to get a car that will suite my business life since that is the primary focus right now. That my persona as a business woman is important and I need a car that will reflect that- and that once my personal life is my main focus a Jeep Wrangler would be better suited.

So my question to you guys- do you guys think that the car you drive is important for your business life? Would you steer clear from certain types of cars purely because they would give off a bad impression?
