The doctor said our buddy, Joe, is fat. OK, he wasn't that rude. He called him obese. Much kinder, right? The doctor told him to avoid C-words in order to lose the 25 pounds he packed on during the past few months because, he said, virtually everything that starts with a C is bad for you. Doc seems to know what he's talking about: candy, cake, cookies, crackers, Captain Crunch, cola, chips, churro, cigars, cream sauce, Criss Angel Mindfreak.... So it got us thinking about if C is maybe the most popular letter in general. It is, after all, what you're supposed to pick on a test if you don't know the answer, because more often than not it's correct. How popular is C in the Jeep/automotive world? Fill in the boxes to find out-and we've only scratched the surface.
