I fully support what your saying except for the part about a SUV to =
take the groceries home. I own a S10 Blazer (mini SUV) and I bought mine , =
like every one else, because 1. Bigger Vehicle =3D No Early grave from a =
crash compared to a cracker box, 2. Bigger Vehcile to pull that trailer =
(transmission will last- mine went out on my last vehicle from pulling =
snowmobiles and trailer), 3. Last longer - (I'm on my 3'rd vehicle ,S10 =
with 190k, and my last 2 fell apart at 100k).
Yes my S10 is a big 4.3 6 cylinder and not a gas guzzling 8 cyclinder.
