* TheWesley: Mater. Many fans aren't fond of him, largely because he's voiced by LarryTheCableGuy. This hasn't stopped Pixar from featuring him in all the shorts and having him practically be the main character of the sequel. The late Joe Ranft, a veteran Pixar animator and voice actor ([[ABugsLife Heimlich the caterpillar]], [[ToyStory Wheezy the penguin]], others) is speculated to have been Mater's original voice actor, which could explain Pixar's fondness for him.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Mater was one of the principle characters in ''Cars'', yet was still one of the many characters in a more EnsembleCast. However, he is the star of ''Mater's Tall Tales'', and is the co-protagonist in ''Cars 2'', with all the trailers focusing more on him than Lightning.

there\'s nothing on the Scenery Porn page to indicate that it\'s YMMV (and other works have this trope on their main page), thus moving it back

* TheWoobie: If you notice very hard in the "Our Town" sequence, Mater had a coat of sky blue in the flashback. When customers stopped coming to Radiator Springs and business closed and all the cars are looking at the empty road, the first car to leave in disbelief is Mater. Plus, he is the one who has physically changed the most- not a hint of paint left on him. And in the present, he's probably the most crazy of the bunch. Evidentally, he took the by-pass the hardest.
