Default Condtional formating -- any wildcard use?

I am new to the MS forums; I apologize if I am breaking etiquette of any
sort, but I'm looking for some help.

I'm wondering if there's any way when using Conditional Formatting to have
it specify if the cell contents are 'like' something.

For example, if I have entries in a column such as:
Red Car
Blue Car
Yellow Truck
Blue SUV
Yellow Car (convertible)
Black Pick-up


etc... and I want to make anything that's a car in that list formatted so
it's Bold.


And again, this is just an example, but if there's anything else I can help
clear up about it... I'd really like to know if this is possible.

Thank you very much for your time.
Best regards,
Matt
