Default XF count on long roadtrip

I just completed a 3000+ mile roadtrip around ID MT WA & OR, driving the family truckster not the Crossfire.

I was suprised that I only saw 2 Crossfires total, both drop-tops, one SRT-6 & one N/A (go figure...). I was looking at all times at traffic in both directions on Interstates and rural highways and the weather was good the entire trip.

In semi-metropolitan areas of N. CA, I can somtimes see two Crossfires in a single morning commute. They are not really uncommon cars aroud here, not Camrys, but not rare either. I wonder if they were sent to/sold much more frequently at dealers in urban areas.

I also saw 2 Vipers in one day (not together) and 2 Sunbeam Tigers (together at a rest stop).

I see more of those new FR-S's or whatever they are (and their subaru counterparts) a day than I see of other crossfires in a month.

My next door neighbor's wife has a gold convertible so I see a XF every day, even though hers is more of a garage queen. But I take frequent road trips from MI to the east coast and down through GA/FL and I rarely see them any more. Look for my roadster in November on a trip to St Augustine and Fort Myers, then home to MI.

I see at least 5 a day where I live. When they are parked I put my card on them about this website and CICCI's site. I got one call from 1 card I left. It seems that no one is interested.

I've gone cross country with a zero count. Around Vegas, you'll see about 1-2 a week.

I have seen 6 in the local NC coastal area - 2 coupes and 4 roadsters. Mine makes 7. What struck me was that on the way to The Dragon - i saw none - until I arrived at the beautiful parking lot of Fontana Lodge where they were everywhere! A beautiful sight!

I see 3 to 5 XF's daily on my commute. FL is an XF hotbed. So much so that its just another car compared to when I take it out of state. When I drove it to Savannah GA earlier this year, folks would comment on it at every convenient store and gas station I stopped at.
