Well, consider this... If I, for example, could only own one vehicle, because I am a trailer-boater, it would most likely be an SUV. But, since I am lucky enough to *not* be limited to just one, I own some nice cars too. I just don't understand some people's need to denigrate others just because of what they own or drive. Well, except Yugo owners. They deserve it... ;-) -Fred W
