Default Re: I say "Tomatoe" you say "Tomato" - How do we call our car?

I was a child in the 50's, and a teen-ager in the 60's. People the age of my parents and grandparents always referred to "T Models" and "A Models." That is what I called them until I became SOPHISTICATED and began to refer to my car as a "Model A." Recently I have reverted to my native tongue and started calling it an "A Model" once again. It makes my wife and children cringe.
