Wednesday's Brain Game---SOLUTION

Wow, this one will keep you busy!!! These are names of past and present vehicles, cars, SUV's etc. To start you off, #1 is Outback. And, if you get #20, you're a genius, apparently!!

ETA: I personally have never heard of #20, so don't be surprised if none of us get it, unless of course it was only sold in the US (which I just thought of) :-)

    Oh goodness.... Get to 20?!?! I can't get past 2! I'll be back later when I have more time. Happy Wed, everyone!

    Good morning.

    #11 was the first car I owned🤠

    Okay, one down, nineteen to go.

    Oh, and my boyfriend had a #6. This puzzle is bringing back a lot of memories.

    I think we’re gonna be here a while. Somebody better put on a BIG urn of coffee.

    Well, I actually think I have #20! Don’t have several others though, so will keep working. This one is a cool puzzle!

  • lettersatoz

    Aye aye aye.....now I know how the non-baseball/sports people felt last time!


    So far, I have 1, 2, 4, 11, 12, 16, 17, maybe 18, and 19 only because I just looked it up (would not have otherwise known that to be a car!). Ooooh, just as I was about to say that I can't imagine the others will come to me, 13 came to me! Maybe there's hope for me yet -- will come back again later.

    Oh my, I have only 9 so far! Thinking about #11; it seems so obvious except...

    Got five of them first time through. The rest are going to require some thought.

    Shown the puzzle to my husband. He’s rattling them off at a pretty good pace right now.

    Whew, I feel better than I now have more than half, with 11 of accounted for.

    I will be using the internet so while I have two correct so far as least I will learn something I know absolutely nothing about cars and I don't see my first car here, or my second.

    I got 4 of them and the rest mean nothing.

    But I did ace the baseball one.

    Oh I think #15 is car number 2.

  • bpath

    I still need

    3,

    7, 8,

    11,

    14, 15, 16,

    18, 20.

    I start off okay and end with a whimper.


  • lettersatoz

    Oh, I just figured out #5 (duh! that was my mother's car when I learned to drive) and 15!! Now just down to 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 14 (what is that....looks like an air hockey table with the Safeway logo in the middle) and 20. I'm getting there!

  • OutsidePlaying
    2 years ago

    I’ve done pretty well. Still need 9, 10, and 14.

  • Rusty

    This is going to be my worst ever brain game! I finally have ten of them, don't think there's much hope of getting any more.

    This is fun! So far I’ve got 15, of which I’m not 100% sure of two.

    ETA 16/2 - I wrapped that last one around a tree.

  • foodonastump
    2 years ago

    Trying to stay distracted from the news. 18/2

  • foodonastump
    2 years ago

    19/2

    I’m stuck on #19, questioning 8 and 10. Esp 10.

  • User

    #10 I’m torn too. It’s either the stuff that’s in a thermometer or the reading on the thermometer. I think either could work.

  • User

    I think that I have them all with help from my husband, but had to do some digging and Googling for# 20. I’ve never heard of it before.


    oh, may not have #3

  • foodonastump
    2 years ago

    I think I know what you’re saying about 10 but disagree that one of them could work, for a very specific reason.

  • User

    last modified: 2 years ago

    I’m leaning more towards the reading being the answer. Yes, definitely the reading.

    I know what you are getting at.🙂



  • User

    I think I have #3. I had to move my thoughts to driving in the USA.

  • OutsidePlaying

    I finally got an answer for #10 and agree with what foas said.

    Also came up with something for 9 and 14 but not totally happy with my answers. I think I’m done though.

    Foas, for 19 think of a different word for what rhe arrow is pointing toward.

  • lettersatoz

    I know what #10 isn't, I just don't know what it IS. My immediate thought was what Rox had been thinking (I think), but then realized....one of these things is not like the others.

    May be a little early, but I think I'm conceding the ones I don't have. I'll come back again at the end of the day, but fairly certain I don't know cars well enough to get those. Hope I'm wrong, but in any event, look forward to the answers.


    Thanks, Jasdip - this is a fun one!

  • foodonastump

    I’m still in the same place. I have two similar guesses for 8, one of which the puzzle predates, neither of which are convincing anyway. And still no clue on 19.

  • User

    #19 I had to check that it is a car model. It is and is exactly what is pictured.

    # 8 I feel confident on but am now going to make sure of the date.

    eta Just checked and the date works.🤠

  • bpath

    I’m looking forward to seeing, after jasdip posts the answers, when else you think #10 could be. I have only one answer.

    I am just not getting any more! I have one more cup of coffee left for my morning attempt.

  • OutsidePlaying

    I may be completely wrong on some of my answers as I had to be a little out of the box for some. I’m pretty confident of 8 and 19 though (had to look up 8 to make sure) and only came up with one thing for 10 also. Well, I did think if something else but ruled it out as it didnt really meet the criteria. I could be totally off on 20 as i think about it more too.

  • User

    Outside Playing, I’m not totally sold on my answer for #20, either. I think it’s the best I can come up with.☹️

  • Rusty

    I managed to add a couple more answers to my list this morning, but no guarantees they are right. I'm pretty good at knowing vehicle makes, like Chevy, Ford, etc. I even remember Edsel, Nash, and Studebaker. But vehicle models are way beyond me. Maybe I just need to go back to bed and start the day over again. Even Wordle was almost a miss for me today. Sheesh! !

    As for 20, I’m very confident with my answer, though I definitely understand why some wouldn’t be. I had to convince myself a bit.


    ETA - I think I got 19 finally. With a word I’ve been playing with for 24 hours now. Just need to rethink 8 now.

    It looks like it's okay to post the answers now, it's been a while with any new guesses.



    1. Outback

    2. Sidekick

    3. Rodeo

    4. Lumina

    5. Cutlass

    6. Torino

    7. Topaz

    8. Excel (Hyundai, for those that aren't familiar)

    9. Saturn

    10 Tempo

    11 Delta 88

    12 Nova (loved those cars)

    13 Eclipse

    14 Escort

    15 Pinto

    16 Monaco (M on ACO)

    17 4Runner

    18 Accord (not a good picture of a cord, imo)

    19 Aspire

    20 Justy (just Y) What is that????

  • bpath
    2 years ago

    What the heck is a Justy??


  • foodonastump
    2 years ago

    Justy is a small subaru.


    Excel. I had to think about that even after reading it. I had noticed there were seven, so I was thinking of BMW X7 which it couldn’t be because it’s only a few years old, or Lincoln Mark VII.


    Got all the rest.


    4Runner - four, not fore. 😉


    I enjoyed this one - some obviously took me a while.

  • User

    Got them all with lots of help from my husband💕

    I had YES (Young Engineers Sportscar from Germany) for #20 as in y/n question but the date was wrong for this puzzle ☹️. I came across Justy through a bit of searching. Settled on that as it fit perfectly.

    I had fun with this one. So did my husband.

    Thanks, Jasdip.

  • lettersatoz

    Justy?!?!? Never heard of it either! But I have heard of the others, so have no real excuse for the ones I missed, I just did. Still, fun trying to figure them out, and some of them were pretty clever - Saturn, ugh, should have gotten that one! For those wondering, Mercury was other choice for 10, but as it was a brand vs. a model, it didn't seem to fit with the others....although if I had gotten Saturn, I would have changed my mind! Tempo was pretty clever, but I didn't get it.


    Thanks, Jasdip - as poorly as I did, I still liked this one!

  • bpath
    2 years ago

    I did the worst I ever have, and yes, it was still fun!

  • carolb_w_fl_coastal_9b

    I remember the Justy coz it was such a weird name 😄

    But I didn't get the clue...

  • OutsidePlaying
    2 years ago

    Well, I missed a few, including Justy (never heart of that one). I had Century (center-y). I had Tundra for #10 and Sportage for #14 (should have figured out S-court as it likely did go thru my mind). All I could come up with. My DH is no help with these so I’m on my own.

  • Rusty
    2 years ago

    Just as I thought, this is the worst score I have ever had! Out of the 20, I had 11 right, 3 wrong, and 6 with not even a guess. But it was fun anyway.

    On to Sunday's game!
