All that talk regarding oversized vehicles remind me the day I stopped at a gas station nearby to get me some coffee and a snack for my dog, then I started to talk with a guy who worked at the convenience store of that gas station about how even cars classified here as a compact became oversized somehow. The guy pointed out a majority of the vehicles he would see on a daily basis often carried only the driver and no more than one passenger. On a sidenote, the SUV craze is also quite strong in my country, even though sometimes a small car may perform better on mild off-road conditions than an overwhelming majority of the new SUVs.

Many would be quite sad to find out I'm not Mexican while I try to dissuade them from asking me to help them smuggle non-certified Diesel engines for them to swap into their rides
