Gas Hog Cars, same phenomenon as boats
wrote in message
Here's a list of the ten worst gas guzzling automobiles.
The 10 Least Fuel-Efficient Vehicles Dodge Ram SRT-10 Bentley
Arnage
Ferrari 612 Scaglietti Aston Martin V12 Vanquish S Bentley
Continental Flying Spur 6. Aston Martin DB9 7. BMW M5 8.
Maserati Quattroporte
9. VW Phaeton W12 10. Ferrari F430
A couple of points occur to me..... 1. These could all be called special
purpose vehicles. Although oft used as personal transportation by the
testosterone saturated, the Ram is truly a work truck, albeit with a narrow
niche; but if they're going to include that, why not include a few models
from Peterbilt, Freightliner, and Kenworth?
2. The balance are either sports cars for the very, very rich, or very high
end executive transport. This is not a comparison of your "everyday" cars.
3. Interesting that the folks who often scream at us as wasteful
insensitives copp the category when it comes to gas hogs. :-)
