- Keep, fictional vehicles seen by millions of viewers. An alternative to separate pages on each vehicle. Kappa 10:05, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Weak Keep. I am not certain whether this belongs in terms of a separate article, but it should be somewhere and I am at a loss to identify an appropriate merger. Jtmichcock 12:46, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- keep per Kappa UkPaolo 14:19, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Comment - If this is kept, it shouldn't be in this form. This should be broken up, with one-time vehicles going in the (sigh) episode pages, and the one-person or one-family vehicles going in the pages for the relevant characters. That said, my heart would not break if this largely useless trivia were deleted. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 14:21, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: Call me Mr Picky, but this article is not actually a list of cars in The Simpsons, it is more like The Simpsons (vehicles). Obviously I would like to see the massive over-coverage of fictional characters and artefacts substantially curtailed - I would suggest that an encyclopaedia has little reason to cover these things (though it would undoubtedly mention The Simpsons as a cultural influence), I am on record as advocating a separate space for fiction (which would also clean up AfD a lot). But that is another issue. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] (W) AfD? 14:23, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, certainly better than separate articles on each vehicle. Agree that it could be renamed Vehicles in The Simpsons. - SimonP 18:15, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Rename to The Simpsons (vehicles). Or transwiki to the hypothetical Wikifiction (if it existed). Way too much trivia of fictional worlds on WP. Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters 18:30, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, weird fancruft, far too much Simpsons coverage already. Andrew Levine 19:08, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Very interesting list, and besides, tv is a major cultural force shaping social reality. Voyager640 19:09, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, per Andrew Levine (but I count those in the plus column). BDAbramson T 19:23, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. As above. Trollderella 20:47, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete It's a shame that kids are wasting countless hours learning about "vehicles in the Simpsons," yet they cannot tell you when WWI ended. Clearly fancruft. 131.96.2.208 21:27, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- November 11, 1918, just in case anyone's education is lacking. ;D - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 21:32, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- The Simpsons is far more relavent to our culture than much of the literature studied in schools. -LtNOWIS 21:51, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- More relevant than WWI? Kaaaay... - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 21:58, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

Delete I like the Simpsons, but there are more then enough Simpsons lists already. Also the show never struck me as that "vehicle centered" a show. Although possibly this could be merged to List of fictional characters within The Simpsons.(A vehicle can be a character, in least after a fashion)--T. Anthony 23:47, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep or merge in relevant character or family article. Don't rename. Both suggested alternatives break naming conventions. If it's a list it should be called "list of" and qualifiers should be used to disambiguate stuff with the same name, not to name subpages of some sort. That said. The Simpsons is an extremely popular show and the vehicles should be covered. A list is better than loads of vehicle stubs. - Mgm|(talk) 16:21, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
- Oh, my head. Delete over-represented fancruft. --Calton | Talk 01:36, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
