This would also include boycotting Walmart, killer of the independent
American small business, pervasive employee abuser, and 10th-largest
trading partner of China (including nations).
Buy American only goes so far, and in the above case, it's likely too
late - walmart has obliterated the mom and pop shops pretty much
everywhere.

going to go one-on-one comparing vehicles, i.e. gas mileage, MSRP,
storage space, re-sale value, etc. Take a look at our economy and
you decide what's best; the future of your country, or your desire
to get the best deal for YOU.

Dang, I was hoping the Honda Fit would be big enough for a common
upright
Victrola. It fills all my other criteria. What about the Kia
Soul? and
doesn't Hyundai have a hatchback?

I am on the verge of getting a new vehicle & thought I'd ask the
advice of
Phono-L members since, like myself, you all have need to haul antique
phonographs. I'd like to have cargo capacity to transport the
"typical"
Victrola (XVI), the "typical" Edison Diamond Disc Phonograph
(C-250) as well
the Orthophonic "Credenza" - when I need to haul an
Orthophonic changer or a Capehart, I'll continue to use my 1969 GMC
pickup.
I want a smaller, more economical 4 cylinder vehicle & have looked
at Hondas
(all of which have
too small a cargo area except the "Element" which I consider
unattractive) &
Toyotas (Scion, Metric, RAV 4 & Venza,all of which will accommodate
the
above mentioned machines) & am leaning towards the RAV4 but thought
it might
be nice to get your input before making a final decision. Thanks!
