In Reply to: It's really not a choice... posted by Bob on April 08, 2001 at 23:38:33:

Bob, to me your statement is not only illogical, but completely out of character for a person of your means! There are many of us who could write the check for the 4.4 as easily as we did for the 3.0, but chose not to for one reason or another. I, for one, am just a little more practical when choosing what best suits my needs. The 3.0 fits my driving style and my needs just fine, and I'm tickled pink with it. Using your logic, because you have the money you should always buy the eight bedroom home even though there's just one person in the family. I imagine you're the type that stops only at the most expensive gas station instead of driving to the next corner. Do you always order the most costly entree on the menu, or do you choose a meal according to appetite? And do you put on more clothes than you need to stay warm just because you have 'em? Are you sure you chose EVERY available option on your 4.4? What would your neighbors think????
