Guscha the average person in North America never heard of a Packard. The name means nothing to 99 people out of 100.

The name might mean something to those over the age of 60 who saw them or heard of them when they were young. Packard was fading out even then, you have to go back to prewar days when Packard was still Packard to find vivid memories. Not many people left who remember that far back.

Other than that, only old car enthusiasts keep the name alive.
