If this is what you have in mind when you think “luxury vehicle” then you’re probably a Texan.

8. You refer to all sodas as “Cokes”, but clarify specifically when you want a Dr Pepper

In Texas, all “sodas” are called cokes. When someone asks what kind of Coke you want, you can specify if needed. But never call a Dr Pepper a Coke. It is not a coke, it is the king of cokes. It is Dr Pepper. It has a PHD in flavor.

Absolutely do not confuse the uneducated Mr Pibb with Dr Pepper though. Mr. Pibb is an impostor who has been trying to pass himself off as a Dr for a long time.

9. You skip the “g” at the end of most words

If you casually just throw out the “g” at the end of most words, then you’re definitely a Texan.

High school size is a matter of pride in this state. If you’ve ever judged someone based on the size of theirs, you’re probably a Texan.

It’s a rite of passage as a kid to endure palm-fulls of twang pickle salt. We’d go to the corner store and grab a few packets or a cylinder of the good stuff and enjoy the sour snack inside by the mound.

13. If You’ve Ever Drank Pickle Juice Out Of The Jar

Speaking of pickles, the only thing better than enjoying a Best Maid or Del Dixie pickle is drinking the juice out of the jar. If you’ve ever done that (you know who you are) then you might be a Texan.
