Totally disgusted

I came home, turned on the TV and suddenly heard the classic NBC STAR TREK theme song. I went, huh? This is CNN. Since when does CNN show Star Trek. I saw what looked like the streaking of stars, then it continued and it turned out to be an ad for the Hummer - the most pretentious gas-guzzling vehicle on the planet. I was revolted. I wonders if it was Paramount who sold out a classic theme song to this stupid car company? People who watch Trek are more apt to drive a Prius than a vehicle that screams 'look at me, I'm rich and waste my money on a vehicle I can't even drive properly' (and yes, I see enough of these vehicles to say that's a fact).

Blech.

Sorry, just had to vent....

Thanks. Been testing out page designs :)

I'd love to get a small fuel-efficient car but don't care to get squashed by an Excursion driven by some nitwit woman driver (and being female, I can say that - many women drivers in this area shouldn't be behind the wheel).

Female driver here too, and being in Calif. for a few years hasn't helped. I do have a little car (long commutes to school and work) and hate SUVs - there seems to beway too many Suburbans in my neighborhood, along with big pick-up trucks.

Besides the gas mileage, I'd never get an SUV because at 5', climbing in and out of one is a pain!
