Beerdrinker.org is a beer drinker: spiffy new road tax idea

  • nedra · 6 years ago
    I just want to say that I am so tired of SUVs on the road
    and the number of "all-terrain" vehicles that are
    purchased in America each year. If we could
    just start by reducing the amount of SUVs in our
    country, we'd probably notice a difference in our air
    quality! In my opinion, they are one of the worst gas hogs, even
    more that full size pickup.

    I definitely agree. While I'm not going to assert that SUVs do not have a time or place, I think that their times and places are far fewer than evidenced by our cronies. There isn't a lot of need for the super-huge vehicles (the ones coinciding with that nice new tax credit), like Suburbans, Hummers, Excursions, Navigators, etc. Maybe if you live in the mountains with a large family...? One of those smaller, more efficient vehicles like the RAV-4 is totally suitable for 95% of SUV demands. And let's see some reasonable demands on fuel-efficiency. But that still doesn't cover emissions, safety, and cost of materials.

    'A cucumber is bitter.' Throw it away. 'There are briars in the road.' Turn aside from them. This is enough. Do not add, 'And why were such things made in the world?'

    It is easier to fight for one's principles than to live up to them.
