Fi, only problem is that Gas guzzlers are already heavily taxed .....via petrol tax. If they use more fuel , they pay more tax !!
true but they also do more damage on roads as they are bigger and heavier than a smaller runabout, so nore wear and tear, are more dangerous on the roads with more accidents especially with kids bring knocked down. I know i was amazed at the blind spots on them when i borrowed my friends hubbys Jeep ( and he uses for what they should be used for, not for running kids to and from school etc) I was frankly terrified when i was reversing as I couldnt see a thing cos of the spare wheel. And everyone who owns then should pay the same tax, doing it thru petrol isnt fair cos some folk use them more than others. And EVERYONE who drives a car pays the petrol tax IMO 4 wheel drives should not be allowed on the road at all, they should be off road vehicles........... that would solve the entire problem!
