Yup. And wait until China either implodes because their population is (I think ~70%) over the age of 46. You think the boomers in the west are going to destabilize the world’s economy. Wait till 700,000,000 people retire there.

Or people that are in the late teens early 20s that haven’t lived (as a working person) through a few of these ebbs and flows.

This seems like something T-Birds slightly dimwitted cousin would drive in the crow 2.

Wow! It’s almost like prices on consumer goods ebb and flow with demand and supply.

I forwarded this link to my wife of 14 years. We plan on redoing our vows for our 15th anniversary.

And someone else driving in minivan or a Tahoe also doesn’t make your kids less safe. You make them less safe by driving the smaller car. The 9000 pound battering ram comment is of course an asshole farting words out.  

And I’m sure they will eventually write an article about the dangers of crashing into a random forest. But this one is about car vs car. 

Ohhhh fuck this airline sideways. I’ve been doing this for decades.

Welllllll I do live in Phoenix. So we have that strange amalgam of desert and California meth-head, and the snow birds to deal with.

Sweet. And statisticaly your kid is perfectly safe. But much like car seats (it really is a shame they needed to make this a law, you would think people would just do it) some are safer than others.

DWI accidents? Any self absorbed asshole that drives under the influence at the minimum needs a punch in the dick.

Are the trees on the road? No. Somehow those vehicles are getting off of the road and into the forest.

Well it’s nice to know I have fans. And my vehicle choice (which in an ILX or an Odyssey) has much to do with how the air we breathe, effects the society around me. And less to do with the crash protection of other people children. 

So fat people don't get cars? I expect better from the Australians. 

Well it’s a good thing they are just climbing along in non capitalist countries. I know my brother in law (medical doctor) just cracked 100k this year. And that’s in ringets, so about 40k USD. And right now the average house there is 1.2 million.

And why do you only focus on the tree part? Is it because you found one part of one thing to be pedantic about? I didn’t mention what tree species or in what part of the world. Are you running into pine trees in the North East or rubber trees in Malaysia? Is the tree large or small? Is it healthy or does it have some…

I don't think I wrote that at all. But our cars also aren't taxed by size (engine or vehicle) so a Corolla and a Camry cost about the same to buy and maintain. But one will do slightly better in an accident. What this article should have focused on (and seem to be the half hearted point) Is that older vehicles aren't…

That seems to be the intention of this article. 

Yeah but most people don’t have a suburban. I know it’s (kinda) splitting hairs here, but most of my circle either have a fwd based SUV. Or a truck based SUV. Or just a truck.

Did you miss the few exceptions part up there.
