I don't think it has so much to do with snakes, as so much as we've had a long history of naming our products after animals; sometimes mythical, sometimes real.

With the cars it has always been some type of snake, the Mamba and the Sidewinder. We started with the aircraft line which has the Phoenix, Thunderbird, Griffin, Pixie and Pegasus. And of course our boat controllers are the Hydra and Barracuda.

So I doubt anyone actually has a phobia about snakes, we just love naming our products after creatures and mythic animals :P
