A cult Following.

The all-mighty and all-knowing wikipedia defines cult following as:

 

A cult following is a term used to refer to a group of fans who are highly dedicated to a specific area of pop culture. A film, book, band, or video game, among other things, will be said to have a cult following when it has a small but very passionate fan base. A common component of cult followings is the emotional attachment fans have with the object of the cult following, often identifying themselves and other fans as members of a community. Cult followings are often associated with niche markets or subcultures. Cult media are often associated with underground culture, and are considered too eccentric, bizarre, controversial or anti-establishment to be appreciated by the general public.

 

The above mentions nothing about vehicles, and the term only seems to fit pop culture. With that in mind, wouldn't 'rabid fanaticism' be more appropriate than 'cult following'? ;)

I'm still waiting to see a Comanche on one of the auto auction shows on HDTV. I'd like to see what a really nice original will go for. But it always depends on the market. I think the problem is, most of our trucks were actually used for what they were intended for and probably few or none were ever put in storage to be preserved as investments.
