Here's some real math: How many Fits fit in the cost of one V10 Touareg?

When I make a beer run, I have been known to fill up a Chevy 3500 vanhttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/wat6.gif and I for one, love the V10 Touareg, a friend had one, but with the Short wheel base, not sure how stable it would be towing a 24' to 30' enclosed trailer. To me, my big ugly burb is a tool, as my track car has glass body work & lexan glass, and no door glass, when I'm moving stuff around, I need something not only big enough to tow & stop, but to store things in too:)

Why is it that some people feel that it is up to them to chose what others drive, why are these same people, typically liberals:confused::confused: So much for freedom of choice:p

On a side note, my Tahoe gets a consistent 17 mpg, and my wifes V8 Volvo XC90 gets 23 mpg on the interstate. Not great, but not horrible.

Yup, I believe so. If it were me I probably would have bought an Odyssey, I liked the extra power and size. But it's the wifey's car, and she liked the styling of the MPV. Overall it was a good choice.

Our SUV was worse because it was a total pig. Our SRX did 18 MPG hwy on premium. Ouch. Pretty sad, because my old 5.3L 2000 Silverado would get 20 MPG hwy.
