I have yet to see any logical arguement against an individual's right to own and drive whatever they desire

Look, drive whatever you please. But SUVs aren't famous for being fuel efficient and when we're dependent on terrorist producing nations for oil, a shift in tastes toward smaller more fuel efficient cars would help a lot.

Let the market dictate what Americans want to drive. Depending on foreign oil is a bad thing, however, that could be curtailed by more efforts and legislation on drilling HERE(America). A shift in tastes to drive smaller cars is fine, but the government mandating it through laws is very oppressive.

On a side note, drilling more in Alaska is going to help. I just wish that drilling more in the Gulf off of Florida would have been Ok'd also.
