I've noticed a LOT of scooters popping up around town, but on my commute to work, there's still tons of angry suv's flying past me on the interstate doing 90, then again, I live in oklahoma, where most people aren't incredibly bright, lol. I still don't get people's obsessions with their gas guzzling trucks.

For me what I like the most about driving a truck is sitting upright. It's hard for me to find a car seat that is comfortable .... and I'm not a big/tall guy or anything.

Tell me about it, they could just drive a little toyota or something. Like the other day, I saw this truck towing a boat!!!! I was like WTH!!! Not only are they destroying the environment driving that truck, they will use even more fuel when the go out in the boat. Get a canoe or something people!!!! Better yet...stay at home and give up all your freedoms


Not every truck is a gas guzzler, some but, not all. My Suburban gets better gas mileage than most of the *cross-over* vehicles produced now. I personally don't understand why people are so obsessed with squeezing every last drop of mileage out a small car that could easily contributing to a life ending because of the lack of safety features compared to what is currently on availalbe now.


Yes, I see all kinds of driving changing for people. The funny thing is the people who go out and pick up the econobox for it's mileage and then have to beat the snot out of it just to keep up with traffic. That's funny.

i see nothing wrong with big vehicals or small ones.. depends on how you use them .. useing a suburban for one person to drive to work is very wasteful. hauling around 7 people in suburban is more efficient than most cars car compair to at 25-30mpg for 4 people.

I have a huge 1 ton dually crew cab but only drive it when I need to tow 9000 lbs.. its the correct tool for the job.

There was a 30% reduction in people travelling on highways in ontario on the previous long weekend compared to that same long weekend the year before. 30% fewer vehicles is a crazy drop.
