I would say so! [&:] But I guess it makes people feel better about driving a monsterous SUV that's 10x bigger than they actually need

I think its kind of cool, though i would never want one. It lets it only use 4 cylinders instead of all 8 when it reaches cruising speed. it gets 6 mores mile to the gallon in the city, but I think alot of the people buying these things aren't too worried about the gas but some are and now they can get their green machine and feel like they are saving gas.
SUV saleshave been down since this gas crisisgot really out of hand and I think its panic mode for them now.
