Segway Training

Look, I understand the underlying desire for a more compact, fuel-efficient automobile. I really do. In congested areas, especially when people have long commutes to work, both cost and space are factors in making smart transportation decisions.

But I'm kind of sick of the kowtowing towards one hyped-up demographic. I have never had an automobile I've fit in. I am very uncomfortable on long road trips. Try as I might to keep my back straight by sitting with good posture, my legs are always cramped, and I have to duck down to see traffic lights out of the windshield. Why does it have to be this way? I wouldn't mind paying extra for a large truck that is TRULY a large truck; something I could comfortably fit in, and, you know, maybe enjoy driving. Instead, the world and everything in it keeps getting smaller and smaller.

Drives me nuts.

Try a Tundra. I love mine. I trade every 3 years and have tried them all. I've had the Tundra for a year now and not a single problem.

I drive a Tundra. I love it. I guess my only two regrets are that it's a single cab, and it's 2-wheel drive. But aside from that, it works great. The air works great.

It IS small, though. For me, anyways. A few months ago, I went looking through consumer reports and searched other forums for automobiles that specifically fit large people. I am 6'8", and about 270.

I was thinking something along the lines of this.

And, it's local! I think that might work. What do you think I can talk him down to?

Dirk,

That looks like a good choice, but there is also Peterbuilt, Mack, Volvo.
