In reality, I think the answer is yes. Among many in my family, at least, a Cadillac was thought of as a bit too flashy..perhaps a bit nouveau. Chrysler, on the other hand represented solid and conservative luxury..good taste..old money. For many, the choices were limited to Packard, Chrysler and Imperial, and Buick. Lincoln did not make the cut until the late sixties.
