What's a Holden Commodore?

When I added Hil's cars to the "All the cars we've ever owned" distributed OPML directory, and read that she drives a Holden Commodore, I had to know what that was. Holden is an Oz division of GM. Car names are so funny, anywhere, any time period. At least the model name is a real word.

Personally I bristle against the marketing practice the last 15-20 years of naming products or companies with made-up words that have been scientifically determined to sound right for the purpose. Lots of times they contain part of a real word that's supposed to appeal to us. Like Acura, which I imagine is supposed to make us think of accuracy or precision. Or Accenture; what's that supposed to convey? Accent implying sharp, cutting edge incisiveness, I suppose.

Why can't we have real words?

If you want to to inclue your car list in the roll, just make an OPML file in this format:
