Poor Drivers
I was surfin on NY Times today, and came across this article
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/06/business/06tank.html?ex=1373083200&en=93b3af51607d2e99&ei=5124&partner=permalink&exprod=permalink
At $100 for Tank of Gas, Some Choke on ‘Fill It’
By CHRISTOPHER MAAG
Published: July 6, 2008
Owners of large vehicles have hit an uncomfortable price milestone and are cutting back on recreational driving.
This article tries to stress the sadness of those poor luxury car owners who have to pay more than a hundred bucks to fill up their cars. Reading the article, I don't know if we're supposed to feel sorry for the person who bought a brand new SUV with leather seats and mini tvs built into the seat backs or what. Poor them, they bought a $100K car and now they have to pay more money than economy car owners on gas. Or maybe we should feel sorry for the guy they interview who owns 3 hummers, cuz they only get 8 miles a gallon.
I just really don't get what the whole purpose of this whole article what about.
