Default I hate SUV owners and this is why

They get HORRRIBLE gas mileage and that means they use more gas. If you ever took economics you would know that the higher the demand for a product the higher the price. If every SUV owner just stopped driving theyre GAS GUZZLING vehicles could you imagine the decline in gas prices that we would experience ? WOW and this goes to OVERSIZED truck owners too who have nothing to haul and just want a big ole truck cuz its got HEMI!! You are the reason our gas prices are high. I am venting. Buy a scion damnit! haha


Better yet if everyone or like atleast 2/3rds of America rode bikes for a week instead of driving (something that would most likely never happen) gas would HAVE to go down ALOT...but then as soon as we get back to driving those big ole V8's it'l shoot right back up again.

Gas prices aren't as elastic as many people are blowing it out to be.

With the price per barrel of oil at what it is, SUV's wouldn't have a tremendous impact on the prices of gas.

Remember oil has more uses than just gasoline, it's primary use is for plastic. If you want cheaper gas prices, you need to speak with OPEC.

well i figured with the amount of vehicles on the road now a days it is relevant to gas prices going up. Especially if you notice the amount of v8's on the roads now a days. All im really saying is v8's make it more expensive for the everyone else. Instead of automobile companys concentrating on the the shortage of gas that were going to see in the near future, theyre creating vehicles even BIGGER with more powerfull engines. Why? Like its sad too because I see 4 clyinders beat 8 clyinders allll the time at the track. So if its about power or speed why dont the factories jus sell tuned up 4 cylinder vehicles ... like throw a turbo or supercharger in it and then throw it in a suv lol half the people that drive big vehicles have no clue as to what kind of engine they even have. fools i tell you! I hear that in certain parts of europe such as Amsterdam, almost everyone rides bikes because of the gas prices being $5 a gal. I see why they laugh at us now...Cause they know what were going to riding on one day and it aint got 4 wheels. Think about it now over there, theyre cars are mostly 4 cylinder too so even with that theyre gas prices are still super high....
