What is wrong??

Meh, I hate the American mindset. About half of the cars I see are trucks or SUV's, and half of those have only one person in them. I mean...right now, my family pretty much drives 3 vehicles (2 owned, and one is a company truck) - my dad has a chevy van for work, and they pay for gas. My mom drives an Acura MDX - prior to me driving, she drove the civic, which made a lot more sense.

But the thing is, my parents aren't willing to make the cut (or buy me a cheap car) to stop driving the MDX - it gets ~18 mpg on average, and my mom has ~18 miles to work...and then another 18 back again. I don't know what t hat has to do wtih anything, but whatever.

On the other hand, my family is asian and we basically don't buy American cars, besides my dad wanting another 'vette...which not buying American is kidna nice, because at least I have my civic (and my dad was trying to convince me to get something like a Jeep Wrangler...because they're 'fun' cars. So is a miata!)

But...Americans just don't seem to give a crap about MPG, but will complain to the ends of the earth about having to pay $50-60 when they have to f ill up because they get 15 mpg and have a 17 gallon tank or something. bleh

And whats with the new American cars looking so ugly? My friend's dad has a Chrysler 300...and its a 'luxery' car or something...one of t he ugliest things I've seen in my life. I'm tired, I'll go to sleep and shut up now
