What CEOs Drive
USA Today has an interesting article on what cars CEOs of various companies drive and why. It and another site — TheLadder.com — conducted surveys of various executives about what their cars said about them.
We won’t get into the nitty-gritty detail the national newspaper did, instead we‘ll break out a number of the CEOs mentioned and what cars they drive. Unfortunately, the story doesn’t list every year, make and model, so we couldn’t be completely accurate. Enjoy.
