It seems that only rugged cities in the Western United States get to be car models. Think about Dodge's Durango or Hyundai's Santa Fe. What if car makers chose to name their cars after cities in New York?

Volkswagen Ithaca

The VW Ithaca has a really smart engine but struggles mightily on hills.

Subaru Ogdensburg

The Oggie does great on snow - it needs to.

Yugo Utica

The Utica is vaguely eastern European in design and was once highly popular but now gets snickered at by other drivers.

GMC Buffalo

Rugged and industrial, but watch out - the seats stain easily after contact with wing sauce.

Aston Martin Southampton

Just move on. You can dream about it but you're never gonna own one.

Schwinn Brooklyn

This is actually a bicycle. How did this make the list?

Chevy Binghamton

The Binghamton is utterly forgettable the moment you pass by it.

Chrysler Albany

The Albany tries to put on airs like a big fancy luxury car. But at the end of the day, it's still an Albany.
