wackos-
This same thing happened at
Romania Chevrolet a year or two ago. They claimed the burning of the two
dozen or so SUVs (Suburbans, Tahoes, etc), would significantly affect the
attitudes of potential buyers for these vehicles and would lessen the fuel
that would have been used by them over their lifetime. Of course,
insurance paid the dealer, who had paid the manufacturer, who just replaced
the burned trucks with new ones, which cost additional energy to build.
Although I'll never own an SUV 'cuz I'm too cheap to drive (on an everyday
basis) a commuter vehicle that gets 10-12 mpg, the logic used by these people
is indeed questionable. . .

Did you guys see the news about those enviromental wackos
that burned some pick-up trucks and SUV's at a Pennsylvania dealership in
protest? What ever happened to people that respected other people's property
and rights?? Keep in mind fellas-- these are the same type of wackos that
hate old cars-all old cars. What's next? Think they'll show up at cars shows
and try something? Am I being silly? Keep an eye out for all those liberal
idiots that want to take away your rights- including owning the kind of car
you want- be it new OR old. Of course, the most intriguing thing to me is,
these people weren't too concerned about wasting a few gallons of gasoline,
or the pollution caused by burning gasoline in this manner--(incomplete
combustion, high hydrocarbon levels-- AND no catalytic converter!) Let's
arrest these idiots and lock them up-- forever. Just some thoughts--
