No no, dont get me wrong
I mean the people that buy the latest 4x4 because its the 'in thing'.
I dont disagree with anyones choice in what they buy but some of these people are giving us a bad name.
i.e the ex Volvo drivers that now own 4x4's
(left indicator, turning right  :roll: )
The problem is they are giving us a bad name.
I spend all day on the road (truck driver) and i see all sorts of bad driving.
The brand new 4x4 drivers are the worst i've seen since the demise of the Volvo driver.
That's all.
 :D

POTASH:
point  taken :wink:

That's nothing to do with 4x4s though... and labelling them as 'a-h' does nothing to help either.

Bad driving standards are one thing, and need to be addressed... but there are bad driving standards in all types of vehicle ownership.  The fact that they own 4x4s shouldn't make a jot of difference, and saying that they should just go back to owning BMWs, etc. only adds fuel to the anti-4x4 argument.

You cannot make any argument that says "Because someone doesn't need x, they shouldn't own it."

Does anyone need a car that will do 120mph ?   Does anyone need sports suspension ?  Does anyone need a car with a 3 litre engine ?   You can play those games all night long, but ultimately we have the right to choose what we drive and *that* is what we should be fighting for.

How do you feel about being told that you can't have modified suspension, or that your engine must be left untouched ?     That's the next logical step, and is a reality in many countries already.
