Okay, so, I’ve been into crossword puzzles lately, it’s like my new thing, you know? Keeps the brain ticking. Anyway, I was working on one the other day, and I hit a snag.
The clue was “Chevy SUV”.
I thought, “Easy peasy, I got this,” but then, my mind went totally blank. I mean, I know Chevy makes SUVs, but which one were they looking for? I started racking my brain, going through all the models I could think of.
- “Blazer?” Nope, not it.
- “Equinox?” Nah, didn’t fit.
- “Traverse?” Still no.
I was getting a little frustrated, I have to admit. It felt like the answer was right on the tip of my tongue, but I just couldn’t get it. I even started questioning if I knew anything about cars at all!
So, I decided to do what any reasonable person in the 21st century would do – I hit up the internet. I typed in “Chevy SUV crossword clue” into the search bar, hoping for a quick answer.
And guess what? The internet, in all its wisdom, delivered.
Turns out, there are a bunch of websites dedicated to crossword puzzle clues. Who knew, right? I clicked on a few of them, and there it was, staring back at me: TAHOE.
TAHOE! Of course! I felt a little silly for not remembering it, but hey, that’s what the internet is for, right? Problem solved, puzzle completed. All thanks to a quick online search.
Finding the Answer
After finding the answer I realized I should check for other possible answers, so I jumped back online.
I found a few sites that listed the answer by letter count. Turns out, depending on the specific puzzle, there could be a few different solutions. They mostly had 5 letters and the most common answer was, in fact, TAHOE. Some sites even showed how often certain clues appeared in different popular puzzles, like the Wall Street Journal or the LA Times. It’s pretty neat how much info is out there.
So, yeah, that’s my little adventure with a crossword clue. Might seem small, but it was a fun little reminder of how handy the internet can be for even the simplest things. And hey, I learned something new about crossword resources online. Might come in handy for the next time I’m stuck on a clue!
