Mar 30, 09 at 2:42 pmYes–this story’s all over the news. I noticed recently, with gas prices down some from what they had been, the SUV’s are all over the place again. For a short while, they must’ve been home sitting in garages, but not now. I know America loves them, but I don’t. All my sibs have ‘em, too, but I like to be able to see as a driver, and I can’t see around the darned things. Since when is it desirable to have a car that’s “just like being in your living room!?” Yikes. This is good–the mouth on his portrait about says it all, doesn’t it!

Oh, by the way, Larry–Duke didn’t make it, yes, but UNC’s still with us! ;D (Go ‘heels!)

Mar 30, 09 at 3:04 pmI was just noticing the same thing about all the big vehicles on the road. Must be nice to own a fleet of vehicles and you could leave the SUV home when the price of gas hit four dollars and break it out when it drops below two.
