that may be taking things a little too out of context...

as a daily driver/only car, it makes absolutely NO SENSE WHATSOEVER to choose a vehicle the size of a caddy escalade/hummer anything...

when the majority of people a: never use the full capacity of seats/space, have nothing to tow, commute long distances, never really need the 4wd as most roads are plowed when it snows, etc etc etc...

it's okay to have a toy car, like a muscle car that drinks as much fuel as you want... it's a toy after all...

it's these idiots who buy huge cars/trucks that serve no better purpose other than to take up valuable space on the roads and impede my vision of what's going on ahead that i take issue with...

seriously - how many times do you see a tiny little girl, climb out of her ford expedition, only to get a cup of coffee at a starbucks?

i do quite alright for myself with 106 hp and 2200 lb civic that gets 35 mpg, even in traffic...
