Why do you need to be entertained driving to Subway?

Cuz most people drive longer than that?

BTW, your argument works both ways ---- If all you do is drive to Subway, why even waste money on a new car, just buy a used beater.

Pretty sure a motorcycle is even less safe, yet everyone here still rides them.

True, but generally we're crazy. Most people are too risk adverse to ride, let alone ride around 18 wheelers.

Yes, but the motorcycle is a choice, that many in government seem to be trying to take away...and at the same time, force the prius and other econo boxes on us.

As someone who drives tens of thousands of miles on Interstates every year, I am not going out in the middle of those overloaded 18 wheelers in a prius.

Get the trucks off the road and you might see more response for the small car.

And diesel wins again! Ford has a 65 MPG diesel car right now they can't sell in the US...And with the EPA announcing today, they intend to regulate emmissions, including the air we exhale, just proves all they care about is money
