Let's make sure we keep the message focused to a sound bite to help the average American. This should be boiled down to:

Well, with the fact that every kid under 8 needs a car seat, maybe you can explain what people are supposed to drive? You can't fit 4 car seats side by side in any vehicle that I know of.

Of course I don't think there is a real shortage either, I see so many gas stations just running out of fuel all the time. A lot of the price right now is fear driven, not actual supply and demand.

Don't have more kids than you can afford.

Don't be fooled. You can put more people in a mini van easier than you can a f**king SUV and they typically get much better milage. An SUV is a vanity vehicle for 90% of the people that own them. There are a few who actually take them off road. And no Sally, backing over the flowerbed because you have no clue where your vehicle is isn't off roading.

Agreed. I have a mini-van that I will be downsizing to a 4 door sedan at replacement time just to up the mileage there.

But, mini-vans aren't COOL. They're just more efficient, fit in the average garage, are easier to drive & park, and are much safer for other drivers on the road. The heck with all that though, I NEED TO BE COOL! GIMME MY CANYONERO!

That's half of the problem right there Bug. The "coolness" factor.

Minivans will not pull a boat, they are front wheel drive people haulers.

So you're burning up extra gas for recreational use (the boat) as well as driving an SUV full time because of that recreational use. You're your own worst problem.

We're not running out because we're willing to pay more than the other guys.
