Four people don't truly "need" a sport-ute, they "want" one. And I don't begrudge them for wanting one, they're pretty darn handy and certainly have some virtues or you wouldn't see so many of them. But there's a certain hypocracy in the way people feel compelled to try and justify their car choices. If gas were $6 a gallon (and it will be soon)a lot of people's "needs" would magically change, would they not? So maybe they weren't trully "needs" after all. And I suppose I'm no different. I "need" AWD because of where I live, and a Subaru isn't a terrible choice. But if gas gets much more expensive I'm sure I will find a way to accomidate something that gets much better mileage. Need indeed.
