    Not IIRC, or ISTR, IRWUA; [recollect with unfailing accuracy]
    Here in the 70's & 80's, gas crisis and first mass import of small Japanese cars, license plate frames began getting text. The two most seen were "Do It In A Datsun" & "Try It In a Toyota". They weren't overtly suggestive, other than to us having well developed social intent.
    But my attention was focused on a sweet thing driving a Fiat 850 Spyder, even smaller. I made her a frame with 3D stick on letters, reading "Forget It In A Fiat".
    LOL! I also remember the old saying "if you can't afford a dodge then dodge a ford" & "Found On Rubbish Dump" & "For Only Real Drivers" , Holden=Holding together by rust. The rustiest cars we (I) saw were Fiats & one Lamborghini "on show" (& chassis' of coastal/beach land rovers copped a beating if not fully rustproofed) : simply not built for our humid climate (about 90 percent of us live near the coast).
