I think it has a lot to do with how much the vehicle stands out, too.* For poor fuel economy, take most of the Dodge Rams with a Hemi.* It makes the Hummer look fuel efficient by comparison.* But look at a parking lot with a few pickups scattered about and it is no big deal.* Find a Hummer, though, and bingo.* Add some keys, some expletatives, and viola.* And if the person was really anal, and did realize that the pickups are that bad, their option is to either key them all, or just pick out the most obvious, like the Hummer.* (Because really, I do not know many stories that involved environmentalists in what I would describe as an "ambitious" manner.* Most of them are students sitting on a government loan, or with mommy and daddy paying the way, so this is what they do in their spare time.* Key 50 trucks?* Too much effort!* Key 5 Hummers?* Yeah, I can do that and still have time to watch my soaps!)* ****heads.* I hope they all die in a fire.
