You are stereotyping the lifestyle here. I have a smallish
refrigerator...14 cubic ft...

we have a big fridge and a chest freezer downstairs.

we drive cars that get 30 mpg

my truck gets 5.5 MPG. I burned 600+ galloms of diesel this week.


...we use our air conditioner maybe 5 days
a summer

we run ours from April ~ Sept. Even cools the deck some with the door open.



and never I never use the air conditioner in my car but prefer to
have the window open...

Too many bugs fly into an open window.

You don't have a TV?

we bought a big screen TV and DVD player this winter.

We have a small set in the
living room and then we have the old tv in the family room that we very
seldom use except when the grandkids are here and want to play with the
Play
Station...

we have 4 TVs.

I do my dishes by hand,

don't do dishes, I'm married.

di not have an insinkerator or a trash
compacter...we recycle all out pop bottles and reuse out plastic milk
cartons until they literally are no longer usable...

I burn all trash and bury the ashes twice a year.
