What’s the most stressful part of coming together for a Texas family holiday? Is it the potential political arguments? Is it the thought of having to listen to Uncle Harold pick his teeth again? Is it the pending fight your dad will have with his brother over the holiday football games? No. In fact, it’s none of the above according to a recent survey released by Chevrolet.
According to the company, over half of Texas families recently surveyed regarding their most stressful moments responded that traffic ranked highest on their anxiety meters. Survey findings released on November 14 indicated that not only were these Lone Star State families concerned about traffic, but they wished they could be doing so in larger SUVs! Partnering with Harris Pole to complete the project, Chevrolet found that for the good old-fashioned family road trip, Texan parents wanted to breeze through without heavy congestion on the roads before they were worried about whether the kids were entertained or repeatedly hearing “Are we there yet?” on their way out to West Texas (or the Panhandle, or wherever Granny’s place may be.) And, over respondents in Florida, California, or even New York, Texans wanted a large, comfortable ride.
