    Ahh - but Shakespeare was obviously a very politically incorrect fellow.
    To wit: "Heigh ho!". He must now be officially purged from our
    literature. :)

    He was very un-PC at the time he wrote, but nowadays, very mainstream
    -- *de rigeur* in fact. His work is compulsory in high school English.

    Right. They're the ones who don't need or want one and refuse to
    understand or accept that there are people who do need and want them.
    IOW, people who bleat about personal freedom a lot, so long as everyone
    does exactly what THEY want to do.


    (PS- I don't own one)

    You're an extremist, extreme right?

    The Corolla is a nice car and would fill my urban driving needs, but
    unfortunately it needs a telescoping steering wheel for me to drive it
    comfortably. I've looked at it very closely.
    I've had large vehicles, even a full sized van when I needed it.

    A truck based SUV is unnecessary for me even though I could write a
    cheque for the largest of them. I don't buy something just because I can
    easily afford it.

    I really wouldn't care if people drive large SUVs, but dam it they block
    the view of other traffic. Plus many driving them attempt to push others
    off the roads, driving far too close and too fast. NOTE I SAID MANY,
    not all. If they continued to buy the Transam GM wouldn't have had to
    shut the factory.

    As for the need to have an SUV, nope not the way I see it in my necj of
    the woods. For example neighbors across the street have 3 large SUVs
    and two cars. Each adult has one large SUV and one of their three
    unmarried children. Obviously they only need one at the most, but like
    many they just have to spend their high income on SUVs.

    BTW I'm already in another country, thank goodness!
