Someone
ought to be shot for that. You *know* they're not going to bought by

You've never taken your Cadillac Escalade offroading into the woods and
swamps?
Why pay 22,000 for an F150 when you can pay 40,000 for the Lincoln
pickup?

In this case, we are in total agreement. But look at all the dumb ****s
that
bought Hummers. I wonder how many have ever left the pavement.

But it is THEIR choice.......I hope you don't prefer the guvmint dictate
what they buy.
