NOPE-just the SUV's. The Republic survived all those years without SUV's and Vans.

Automobiles are O.K. But it's a moot point as SUV production will not stop untill people wise up and quit buying them!! Right?!!

While SUV prices climb, car prices are in decline -- supply/demand. Average SUVs @13-MPG; Average Cars @25-MPG.

But where do we draw the line? Do you really want to drive a lightweight 3-cylinder cherrios box? While you may get 50 MPG, if even a squirrel hits you head-on the car might be totalled.
