OT- R& T SUV Comments

I was reading my latest issue of R&T and saw this quote out of Peter Egan's Side Glances column that made me smile and just had to share.

"10) The same Baby Boomers who ridiculed thier parents for dring around in '2-ton land yachts' during the 1960s are now driving around in 2.5 ton SUVs that get the same dismal mileage, but have less luggage space. I oughtta know."

Seems I have missed out, as a kid, the only "land yacht" we owned was a '66 Dodge Van with two seats and a 225 ci engine in between them.

The more things change, the more they remain the same.
