Trivia
- The Stodgey Suaver LT is very similar to the 1972 Shyster Cremlin, of which Otis is, and the EX is similar to Chick Hicks' model, the 1979 Shyster Cremlin and resembles a BMW M3 E30.
- The company's name is likely a portmanteau of Dodge (another car company) and the adjective Stodgy meaning dull and uninspired;lacking originality or excitement.
- Crusty Rotor was the only Stodgey Suaver EX race car to not be made into a Capitol Motors Mark II in Cars 3, as he retired and was replaced by Rev Roadages instead.
