Cool. Now I'll get Stalin-esque. Slap an enormous, annual tax on
trucks,
unless an owner can show that he actually has a purpose for it, other
than
"I just wanted a Dodge with a hemi so I could hang chrome accessories
on
it". No trailer registered to the same owner, meaning he tows nothing?
He
gets taxed. Not in a profession which actually requires a truck, like
carpenters & landscapers? He gets taxed. If a doctor decides to become
a
plumber, there are ways of giving him back his surcharge in future
years.
No
more buying a huge truck just because every 4 years, you need to bring
home
a bale of peat moss.
Hey, don't forget to slap that tax on those who could've gotten away
with using a minivan but CHOSE to get a vehicle with rear-wheel drive
instead, although they had NO REAL REASON for it, other than, "I didn't
want front wheel drive".
I had actual experience towing with front wheel drive. Only stupid people
suggest it as a good idea for towing. Passable, but far from optimal. How
about you? What do you have to back up YOUR comment about it?
I tow my boat with a FWD Dodge Caravan. It is completely passable. I
could choose a RWD for convenience, but it IS NOT a necessity, it is a
CHOICE.
More left-wing-nut hypocrisy.

So.....my personal observations about towing with my previous vehicle are
based on politics? Now, there's an intensely stupid theory.
Not your 'personal oberervations', just your ability to suggest your
reason for owning a gas guzzler is any more valid than anyone elses
reason.
You just can't admit that it's not, but you still attempt to hold
others in contempt, criticizing their reasons as invalid. That
behaviour really is par for the leftists, as it has been for various
groups in the past (Nazi's, pseudo-'Christian' groups, Soviet Union
Communists, the KKK...) who wish to dominate and control others to
their own benefit.
