Detroit: Tow Ridiculous

Right on target. The 0.1% of people towing can go ahead and buy a truck with a large value added tax. Everyone I know with a hitch never tows anything, especially to work, around town... Tow-folks can always rent the package for far less than ownership. Downside the fleet, legislate maximum vehicle weight, remove the big trucks. People looking for excuses are ridiculous when they say "they can't make me sell my guzler! I have a right to drive my 55 chevy." Actually yes we can. The roadway is the most heavily regulated activity in America today. They even tell me which side of the road I must drive on, where to stop, turn, maximum speed, even 'intentions' are regulated such as "unsafe movement", everything about the roadway is regulated. It's time we got smart and quit playing the loophole game. It's killing us.
