Ok, we’re the Simplicity Family and we drive a gas guzzling 4 x 4. Sounds like a confession doesn’t it?
Well it is and I have to confess that it doesn’t sit quite right with our ideals.
Whilst I sympathize with those who think that 4×4′s are the machines of the devil and I agree that in a lot of cases they are driven unnecessarily there are times when only a 4×4 will do…….
In our defence we have been running it for quite a few years now, have maintained it and run it for more than the all too common 3 year turnover. This is far better for the environment than changing every few years as the amount of energy required to produce a new car is massive. I guess what I am saying that it isn’t black and white and let’s face it is driving any car enviromently friendly?
Very much agreed. There are also certain professions that do require large vehicles such as farming (has anyone tried to bring in a big harvest on a scooter or bicycle?).
