SUVs suck... The US needs to stop subsidizing gas prices with my tax dollars... Price that gas at 3-5$ a gallon like it should be...
SUVs are a bad excuse for waste.. As if 90% of the people ever use any portion of their big vehicle... Beyond that, people driving them operate like bulldozers... under the belief that it is safe... its ok.. I won't get hurt.... They prevent anyone in a non-monster truck from seeing around them, through them, etc. Gas consumption is just the peak of the gluttonous behavior... Most of the ego cases driving their oversized yuppized bullcrap mobiles simply don't need the features or space or benefits of such vehicles - the TV status case advertised them into buying it... Sure there are some big guys out there that need more vehicle.. I can dig that... But when I see a soccer mom in a 2 ton Surburban or Escalade I got to ask why? Why not you ask? Hey big toys might just be the accessory for lots of big egos and little or no self. Afterall, doesn't the big vehicle go along with that big new house with the 24 windows instead of 12... with 3000 feet of always temperate controlled to perfection environment... The waste of the vehicle is just the tip of an entire gluttonous lifestyle... I don't envy it... It isn't healthy and it isn't sustainable... And in humor of the thread: You guys are all retarded... I can post whatever I want. You don't like it, too bad, this is America. Are you mad at the people who are retarded, or the post post about retards? Are you jealous because you didn't think to be retarded? Would you have us all be limited to one retard at a time? Once again I revert back to the land of the free, free to be retarded. Don't like it, too bad! Making me laugh too hard...
