People buy the cars they want. Bitching about people car choices is like bitching about people’s food preferences. Putting the blame on people for super poor fuel efficiency standards is sort of more in line, but even then, the people who are supposed to make these changes from DC but fail to do anything keep getting reelected. I wouldn’t want to buy a full sized pickup where I live, because I think it’d be a nightmare trying to park anywhere. But as long as there aren’t extenuating variables (as in the truck pictured in this post), I let people do what they want.

You can be mad at the government’s inaction and the consumers which support the market at the same time.
