I bet that it would. That just goes to show that relying on other nations for our main supply of oil is giving us the shaft. This world sucks.

But we don't rely on other nations for our main supply of oil.... we only import ~45% of our used petroleum...and we export almost as much as we import....isn't that some crazy shit?.... :\ lol

Tripping over dollars chasing pennies is the correct way to put it or in the governments case killing my own country for a dollar bill.... what would happen if every thing didn't revolve around money??

We would only have to deal with religious wars then?...but if money wasn't an issue....then would religious arguments even exist? I mean, it's all a numbers game isn't it? The more pupil's a religion has the more money it gets...so if it wasn't for money, would they care?....

Yeah so I am thinking about selling the ranger and purchasing a smart roadster, I mean it will eventually pay for itself right? but what happens when the 12 to 14 inches of Michigan snow cover it will it be gone JK it really isn't that small but I have been looking for a more economical gas solution.

I wish they had a plug in version of the smart. Actually, I wish they had a plug in version of every car. Anyway, I was gonna say it would be a great car for me except I also need something a little more practical for those long drives home. But honestly a Smart is probably all I need.

Yeah, they're not too expensive and they really are great cars. I obviously haven't driven one but they could scoot around Europe pretty well. I gave one a good look at the auto show and neglecting luxury, they do seem to share many of the quality features of their older sibling. I also like the fact that they have plastic body panels so you can just change the color/paint scheme whenever you want. You can personalize them more than your average car.

I liked that they are actually quite structurally sound. I was really impressed with the frame/cage that was built into it.
