: Does anyone know what a cheese car or cheese mobile is?
: 2 guys are talking about a stationwagon-type car.

: A)What is that, a Dodge Neon? Is that a K-car?
: B)It's a stationwagon.
: A)It's like a cheesemobile.
: Like the one for suburban families.
: A)Look, it's Chrysler, It's just a cheese car.

: Does it mean a stationwagon for a specific purpose?
: Than you in advance.

I've heard "cheese bus" used as a derogatory term for a school bus but I assumed it was because of the traditional yellow color of the buses. Never heard of a cheese car. Maybe the speaker is criticizing the car because it appears to be made for carrying a suburban "soccer mom" with children, and it's like a school bus because it carries children.
