Multiple Choice

New Car Purchase
Zena has been promoted to VP of the management consulting firm where she works.. Her new status has led her to consider the need for a new car. Her trusty little Volkswagen Beetle has over 100,000 miles on it and no longer seems appropriate. Susanne, another VP, suggests that Zena consider a car produced in the United States because the firm has a policy of supporting U.S. businesses. Zena began her quest for a new car by visiting several car dealers and obtaining pamphlets on the models she is considering. She also studied Consumer Reports magazine, Car and Driver ratings, and other consumer rating publications to see what the experts think. After evaluating all options, Zena has decided to purchase a new Chrysler. She believes that the car is a good fit with her new image and position in her company. Since her purchase, she has seen more advertisements touting the car's features than she ever noticed before. She also has noticed many models of her car on the road. Zena thinks the fact that so many others are driving the same model car as hers is proof that she made a good decision.
