Default Which Is the Better Chick Magnet - a Corvette Or a Cute Puppy?

I didn't buy my Corvette because I wanted a chick magnet. I liked the styling and performance of the C6. But some people view the car as a chick magnet.

I adopted a young dog because I wanted another buddy after my older dog died in August.

I think I have met more women in the four weeks of owning the dog than I have in the five years of owning the Vette.

It got me wondering which is the better chick magnet?

Definitely a Puppy or a cute Kitten are both better chick magnets than a Vette.

Best chick magnets I ever had were 1 to 2 year old daughters. Had four of them. The last one was the hook that snagged my current, and best, wife. I just wish they would have produced more grand-daughters instead of so many grand-sons.

I usually tie a necklace of $100 bills around my neck.

There, you answered your own question.

Most definitely a puppy will get more women to approach you and start a conversation. It makes you seem more sensitive and caring.

The puppy no doubt. A lot of the times a baby works also.

a puppy works best at a dog park, but having a Vette and a puppy at a car show would be good.......

A cool car is not a chick magnet except in the wishful minds of the guys who drive them. But who can resist a cute puppy?

Which Is the Better Chick Magnet?

It depends on the chick,
but if I were in the market, I'd put my money on the dog.
