BTW, on the so called “smart cars”…they are neat on paper in a perfect world and maybe on the test track…or bike paths. But…for those of you that want to whine about getting in a wreck with my big rig because of your driving a so called “smart” car etc? Please people…you’re right, you would be a bug on my windshield if you’re ever in an accident with my Yukon XL, which is exactly one of the reasons I bought it. I wanted my family safe and knew that with all it’s other safety features, for the most part, in most accidents except with a like vehicle…they win, no matter who’s at fault. So for those of you with your “smart” car or micro-cars…too bad, suck it up and stop your whining because YOU made YOUR choice and I made mine. (And thank goodness it’s still a free capitalistic country…so far.) I KNOW that my wife and children are safe and I payed/pay for that safety because it is important to me…more than money. Your decision to buy “smarter” car is just that, your choice…you knew the cost, benefits…and risks when you made your decision. Besides: <br> <br> (a) You never asked my opinion when you bought yours, why should I care about yours.<br> (b) You don’t care about my opinion in your decision making and I don’t care about yours<br> (c) It should have NO bearing on my decision what I decide <br> (d) I have not infringed on any of your rights…so don’t on mine. Remember the constitution and the bill of rights…yes that applies to car buying and comes in to play here. (I have never asked the government to pay my fuel bill even though I pay for theirs.<br> (e) Be accountable for your decisions and consequences of your choices and actions.<br> (f) While I am a fairly responsible and good drive…if you don’t like the thoughts of tangling with my rig, stay out of the way or better yet, stay on the bike paths with your “smart car”.<br> (g) I have to wonder how “smart” your car and your choice would be if you were in an accident with me. <br> (h) It seems you all complain more about paying MY fuel bill than I do…and I’m the one paying it. BTW, I make a good living but am not even close to being rich.<br> <br> Additionally, FYI…unlike some SUV’s (especially smaller ones) because of it’s design and weight it is very difficult to roll one of these specifically in comparison to many other vehicles…it also corners and turns sharper than you might imagine.
