Spending thousands for a "fashion accessory" like a Hummer, or any car over say $20,000 is such a waste as far as I'm concerned....society is so worried about how others perceive them, having this need to keep up with the Jones, or better them...somehow equating standing in the community with what one drives....Shallow materialistic Americans, to be sure.

Consider this: Most Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Volvos, Range Rovers and more costing more then $60,000 are LESS dependable then our Yaris, so Why. Do. People. Buy. These. Unreliable Cars.??? Answer: Shallow materialistic insecure idiots seeking status, and the approval of their peers.

If I were to waste $$ on a fine Luxury car, it sure would be none of the cars listed above....I'd get a Lexus because it is the most dependable line of cars in the world, at any cost!
Pavel, it surprises me to say this, but I heartily agreewith you
