More like what they can get out of the relationship is rather limited.
Or kinky.
Y'know, I've never actually known any females who were into model railroad, or RC vehicles, or any of those sorts of hobbies. Seems to be a very classically male thing.
EDIT: Also, HO scale sucks. O, O27, and N scale are where it's all at.
I played with my dad's model trains and matchbox cars when I was a kid. I think the thing is, I have neither the time nor the money to spend it on that sort of "collecting-building" type hobby. I mean, I've always thought model kits (especially airplanes) were pretty nifty, but where am I going to put them? When am I going to build them? Instead, I model airplanes and creatures in Maya, because they don't take up space and you can use them to make movies.
As Scott says (by way of Hermes) "Hey...Come ride my train."
I have always wanted a model train set. Right now, I am working on my friend's son to get his wooden Thomas the Train set. He is three years old. I think it can happen.
I haven't lol'd so hard in such a long time. Ford does not own Fiat, Fiat owns Ferrari. Fiat owns pretty much all Italian car brands, with the exception of Lamborghini. They make normal cars, and they aren't that popular either, I haven't seen one in quite some time. As for high school kids... eh, yeah right, if high school kids were allowed to get a drivers license perhaps, and even then Fiats would cost too much. Scott's knowledge of the European cars, not that good.
I felt almost the same way about this. But, there was a really big coincidence in Scotts's comment. When I was in high school, I had a fiat. FIAT does make a lot of different category cars, sedans, compacts etc... But it was also a coincidence that the kind of FIAT I had was a small, fuel economy and really affordable type of FIAT. Because of that I thought it was an "OK" explanation for people that have no knowledge of the existence of FIAT. Off topic: I had a few other cars after that FIAT, and a few years ago I bought another FIAT (FIAT uno), from my mom. It's a small car with a 1 litter engine. I don't think Americans can picture a one litter engine. LOL. I myself thought it was a really slow car. So I turbo charged it. There are some not so politically correct videos of my little car in youtube, I will post the link for those who are curious, but if you don't mind that sort of thing, please don't come bug me about it.

:HEADESK: It's a fucking grocery cart from the 80's!

That's what pretty much every non-sports-car car company does. It's not a rare thing.

50 meters acceleration idiocy during broad daylight? Did you ever notice that you hear more tire-squeeking than motor noise?
May I interject that almost all of my family's cars have been Fiats. We currently have 2 Fiat 126s (I have to sit across the back seat to fit in.) and a Doblo (The opposite, has all the leg and head room anyone could want.).

Oh wow. The Doblo used to look a lot goofier than it does now.

What do you mean? It only got a nose job, one that didn't significantly change the looks of the Doblò. Are you perhaps confusing it with the fat-roll first generation Multipla?
