My best friends are a soccer mom (actually little league) family of
four with both cars being Yukons.

There's a difference between having kids who play sports, and buying
what everyone else has because you're a dumb twit who can't make an
intelligent buying decision.


Well, the Yukons have nothing to do with sports and I'm not sure what
their argument for buying them was. I guess they just wanted them.


Bingo! They must be one of the crowd that says "We have a god-given right
to own anything we want, no matter what effect its use has on society at
large".


You may be giving too much credit where it's not due at all. I don't
think the idea of anything other than "Ooh, cool car, I want one." was
involved.


Hey....I'd love a string trimmer with a tilting head to do driveway edging.
But, there are already too damned many noisy little motors around my
neighborhood, most of them serving no purpose at all. A healthy 30 year old
couple using a leaf blower for 3 hours to clean up under a *MINIATURE*
Japanese red maple that's barely larger than the plastic bag they're putting
its leaves in. Give me a friggin' break. Bend over and pick up the leaves.

Pass the ammo!
