what's with the Latin, guy who doesn't know his own name ? you were saying the same thing ad nauseam ad infinitum not "to the point of " ad nauseam, ad infinitum. If you are going to be pretentious, at least be correct and pretentious.

Don't those trash heaps cost $30,000 and up? : : One more thing for you out there that don't read my posts regularly. You : already know how tipsy SUVs are. But its worse than you think. When they : are loaded to maximum gross weight, including the roof rack load, they are : MORE TIPSY. And when fuel is minimum, they are MORE TIPSY YET. All things : considered, they are much much worse than you thought and worse than : CONSUMER REPORTS THINK ALSO. I suggest all you SUV owners organize and : launch a class-action suit to recover all the unused value (as if they had : any to start with) left in your SUVs, based on a straight-lin 10 year : depreciation. It will bankrupt the lenders, dealers, and manufacturers! : Take the money and run before you flip and kill yourself or ram somebody : and go to prison penniless. : : Federal Government: In between wars, set up the DOT so it regulates and : certifies cars for roadworthiness just like you did private airplanes back : in the '30s. Don't let any cars be sold for the road unless they are : triple safe. :
