Quote:The remark about "we want to drive an SUV anyway" is another cost benefit consideration for some customers, but not for those on a budget.I don't see any kind of benefit in owning a SUV, unless you're desperate for some kind of compensation. Cars are tools and should be treated as such.
I wouldn't mind a substantial worldwide tax (10% or so) for owning anything that goes less than 15-18 km/l (or ~38-45 mpg). The money from this should go towards improving alternate energy sources.
Not that it'll ever happen.
