Will. Are you saying that driving a 4x4 is the same as beating a dog or that you consider both to be anti social? Presumably beating a dog inside a 4x4 is a non starter? Ironically I cycle almost everywhere, but I digress ... I always find it odd that such vitriol should be directed at the customer for buying the car rather than the manufacturer for making it available to buy. I'm afraid the old 'supply and demand' argument doesn't wash either because if it was such a vital issue then surely the Govt would have banned all 4x4s. Ahh, but then of course there's all that tax revenue on 4x4 Tax Discs and don't forget the tax on petrol, a loss the Govt chaps would find hard to make up from electric powered cars that can only travel 80 miles before having to be plugged in for the night. Or cyclists. I do my bit by cycling, my concience is clear, but until the Government DOES ban the 4x4 I am extremely happy to continue driving mine. |
