Maybe some of you fat arsed yanks could walk a bit instead of driving everywhere in your SUVs?
I'm far from being fat, but I do drive a full size Chevy Suburban. Since 95% of my driving is on the interstate, I get approximately 18 miles to the gallon. Granted, that's shitty mileage compared to the compacts, but I also don't have a car note. I'd sure hate to have a 5 or 6 hundred dollar car note and still pay $4.00 a gallon plus higher insurance rates.
I'm Welsh, you can call all the English gay it doesn't bother me in the least.
You can do what you want with your money, it just amuses me that some of your country men/women complain vehemently about it costing them a huge amount for them to move from one place to the next in their huge engined cars.
Fwopping, you know you want to!

There are 10 kinds of people who understand binary. Those who do and those who don't.
Just kiddin' again.
I like your opinions, and the static.
I actually agree.
Being one of the few people who actually need a vehicle like I have up here in the frozen tundra.
It's all good from this end sho.

I have no idea what your government taxes you on your motoring, fill me in?
I drive my car hard and I have trouble getting it down to 18mpg. If you're getting that at a steady speed on large roads then I'd question wtf do you need an car/engine that big for? Do you need it for acceleration? Do you need the torque because your towing something heavy or have a large load to carry? Or do you simply feel safer with a lot of metal around you?

Good questions. When I bought my Suburban, I was using it to haul medical equipment from one clinic to the other. I also used it to tow my 18' bass boat. As for safety, you can't help but feel safer in a rolling aircraft carrier.
No need to put my name in quotes, SEE, it's actually my name.
I'm Spike, nice to meet you...
LOL
I've seen Germany, BTW, my Mom grew up in Bremen, during WWII.
I've been there for a few months, visiting as a kid.
As to the road, I mostly make Jen drive... (why drive, when you can be driven?)
You may have seen pics of her boobies in the various PS-4 threads.
LOL
I keep the LS-400 in the garage until I have a big-fat-assed-dump-truck and other expensive road-crew types come up and level everything so I can make the 7/10 of a mile trip out to the pavement.
Ya, I'm a big, fat-assed American (Yank-Me!).
LOL

Time to face facts -- If it weren't for "idiots" like us "yanks", you'd be speaking German today. Bye now.
I think you'll find that Charley Boy is half German and Greek anyway. Do you speak Apsaaloke, Quinault, Muskogee or any other of the native languages of your country?
As for us being collectively grateful to you yanks for the results of the second world war, I'd gladly say thank you to the older generation who did lay their lives on the line, but I wouldn't say it to you as I don't think you deserve it (I don't think you're that old are you, piles giving you problems are they gramps?).
I'm assuming you're not up to speed on the results of the Treaty of Versailles - which both our governments played significant roles in - and it's effect on the German state and people after the first world war, are you? I don't think we'd would have gone through the second one if it was for that, but hey we'll never know as that's just conjecture.
Anyway I wont expect you'll answer as you're you've said ta ta, so I'm expecting yore driving the 200 yards to the quicky mart to pick up your lard in a jar for breakfast.
Fwopping, you know you want to!
