    I'm reposting these. I think everyone who considers buying an SUV should read this material.

    Coming from a family of 6, I understand the need for Minivans and SUV's, but for comuting puposes, people should have a second car and I think the government should reward these people for doing so. If people had the SUV for the weekends up to the cottage - towing bikes, kids, etc etc, and then had thier little smart/honda civic for the daily commute, they'd save a whack on petrol costs, repair costs and they'd be doing the environment a huge favour.

    Because really - people who can afford a brand new SUV are typically able to buy a pissy little comuter.

    Good to see like minded thinking people here.
