Are you going to limit the amount of gas for folks that rely on their

car

for business use?

Probably not, but how about the moron who buys a full-size diesel
pickup

and

adds 1100 lbs of chrome accessories, but tows nothing, hauls nothing,
and
doesn't need the truck for work in any way, shape or form. Just wants
it
because the vertical back window shows off his collection of 100 decals
he
bought at state fairs.



IT is his truck. And he probably uses less fuel than if he towed a boat
with it. More fuel while towing and even more fuel in the boat.




Lights on, nobody home. That truck uses more fuel than various other
pimp-mobiles he could've chosen. You know that. If you don't, go look at
some mileage stickers at dealerships.



One of the reasons why I *didn't* buy some monster new truck to haul
around our Parker is because most of the time such a vehicle wouldn't be
hauling around anything but itself and my butt. Now, my gut is too
large, but my butt is not. For the little bit of trailering I do,
there's no need for Monster Truck.


BS. If you were concerned about oil, you would either have no power boats
or a small sailboat. Let alone 2 power boats?
