This Week's Puzzler

Plural Auto

Puzzler time. This one is much easier than last week. And this one is automotive. Here we go.

Automobile model names were often nouns back in the day. For example, Mustang, Beetle or Dart.

One wouldn't expect a manufacturer to use a plural noun for a model name. Or any plural name, like Accords or Colorados. But the practice is not completely unknown.

Can you identify an automobile model from back in the day that was sold in this country whose name was a plural noun? 

There are a few of these out there these days. We will accept any one of them.

What automobile model name is a plural noun?

Good luck.

The Egg Test

Puzzler time.

This one is non-automotive. Here we go. 

A farmer had three daughters. And he decided to test his children. Send them off on a little errand. 

To each of them he gave the following number of eggs.

Daughter #1 got 15 eggs.

Daughter #2 got 50 eggs.

Daughter #3 got 85 eggs.

The farmer told them they each had to go their separate ways and sell these eggs. They each had to sell the eggs for the same price. And they had to sell all of their eggs before returning home. And they somehow had to return with the same amount of money. And the daughters were not allowed to have any contact with each other to exchange money, or eggs.

So each daughter was tasked to sell their specific amount of eggs, 15, 50 or 85, charging the same price, and somehow return home with the same amount of money. 

How did they do it?
