| RE: wagons in US
This is a picture only thread, so I won't post another text only response; but in response to your mention of gas prices; here in the States, the Federal government has actually provided tax incentives for people who purchase SUVs and who subsequentially claim them as business expenses. So if a real estate agent or lawyer would rather motor about in a Chevy Suburban or Hummer while selling condos or representing a client, he or she can write off much of the cost of the purchase.
Decidedly bass ackwards policy in my view, but there is hope.... in a less anthropocentric view of things: even if we humans totally exhaust the planet's resources and kill ourselves off; some few species will persist and resurrect what may be a better (human-free) biosphere...
