Where's the ethical part? I know some people consider driving around in a car un-ethical, and some people consider declaring bankruptcy un-ethical. But in the US those are both part of "The American Way". Recently the Bush admin made individual bankruptcy more difficult but still what's good for GM is good for the country right? I agree with Roody.

Also, here in DC people drive around in trucks for the macho image. They have cushy office jobs. All you have to do is look in the bed and hitch to see that they don't use them. They could easily rent one for the few times they use the bed or towing ability. A computer programmer friend who drives a big truck also rides around the bike paths on a mountain bike with huge knobby tires.
