The regular cab models, though, aren't that appealing to be because there's really no inside storage without the back seats the extended cab models offer. I live on a fairly narrow city street with sidewalks and parking on both sides. We have seniors roaming around with walkers/rollators, dog walkers, young people etc passing by on a regular basis. My towing needs are very light but I need a shorter vehicle for maneuverability and superior all around visibility for regular use. My next vehicle (March 2009) will probably be the Toyota Rav4 with the 4 cylinder auto. I can always get a light utility trailer for hauling bulky stuff. Then again, if I move to a bigger boat...I may get the 6 cyl. Did you run that by your son? Run this, Dingy Boy. Blood pressure a little high today, Donnie? |

Bush - the 43rd Best President Ever! Kind of like you suggesting that my boat is of little value because it did not cost as much as yours. Dance silver spoon boy... I have no idea what your boat cost, and I doubt you know what I paid for mine. Ergo, your posit is just more of your b.s. Does Chuck still have a copy of the purchase order for your first Parker? Even accounting for Chuck's stint as a used car salesmen he has higher ethics than you. |

Normally, you learn that from your parents. Yours must've been pigs. |

Most of the older than teen years people in crap jobs lack either the training, education or gumption to get a better job. I worked while going though university. Took me 8 years to get that Bachelor of Science degree, but spending 10-11 hours a day working and studying. Does not take a lot of skill to install lugnuts on an assembly line. |

All we ever heard growing up was how important an education was for obtaining a decent job when we grew up as an inducement to work hard in school. Now it seems that everyone expects and is entitled to a good job regardless of how they applied themselves in school. We should focus more on making sure that people less fortunate have the opportunity for an education, not a guarantied, high paying job. It then remains an individual choice, not a social program.
