cars have inherited

may god help us,

Via NYTimes:

RON GEREN, an actor in Los Angeles, commutes to auditions and jobs throughout Southern California in a sleek black Mazda MX-5 Miata convertible. But for a recent date with a woman, he rented a Cadillac Escalade because he was so used to friends saying his Miata is “gay.”

The article goes on to explain that for dates with Predicons, Optimus Prime tends to go as an extra-wide load tractor trailer truck, but if he's just going for a bite to eat with the guys, you know, casual, he'll just transform into a Ford Focus.
