May I recommend the Hummer?? I absolutely love my moms and if I had 60 grand to spare there is no doubt that's what I'd have bought. It drives like a dream (which was totally unexpected). It's easy to park and you hardly even feel potholes and at 11.9 mpg you can tick off any liberal within a 3 mile radius. What fun!!!

I drove the military version in Saudi in mid-nineties. I'll keep it in mind. I like that part of pissing the Libs off! Hehehee... :-)

Oh, the gas guzzlers that I have owned in my lifetime. It makes me proud to be an American, just because I could do it. After all, the sheiks in the middle east, the dictators in central america, hollywood moguls and hypocrits, ( What else do their five and six bay garages have in them) like Arrianna Huffington, all have their Mercedes' and Jags.

Just give me an old fashioned Hemi, and them a giant sized set of hemmoroids. Then let them kiss my gas.

I own a Red Hummer H2. I regularly hunt hybrids to run over, but I have yet to find one. 99% percent of the time, I am the only one in it, burning gasoline at a very fast rate and loving it. I'm about to have a video screen put in the back for DVD's that no one will watch, along with some fancy rims that I wont be able to see from the outside.

I'm doing my part for the economy, and Liberals can kiss my ass.

My Disco (Land Rover Discovery) only gets 14 mpg, and costs a fortune to get repaired. I've discovered that it will drink mid-range gas -I've actually heard it will drink regular but am afraid to try it. And I've found non-dealer mechanics. The company rips off the dealers so bad, that the dealers feel obliged to pass it own.

That said, I love it. I love the way it looks, I love being high up off the ground, I love all the windows, I love the leather seats, I love the moon roof, I love the sound system. I love knowing that if I hit a deer, I've got a fighting chance. Yes, I am female. To a male, these are probably dumb things to love about a car.

I don't really want to piss off environmentalists, but I am really glad I don't live in Eugene. An old high school buddy, who is now an environmental lawyer, does live in Eugene. He has three vehicles - a Porsche, a pickup truck, and a van. But it's ok because, you see, they aren't SUVs. I only have one vehicle, so actually am *more* eco-friendly, but hey, who cares?
