I’d like to overcompensate, but they don’t sell Abrams tanks to civilians.
Anectdotal evidence that this survey is crap: I live in Northern Virginia, the most liberal area of our state. Around here, white-collar liberals and conservatives both love luxury and ostentation. Huge numbers of SUVs and mini-vans; relatively few hybrids. It’s also not unusual to see a hybrid parked in the driveway next to the SUV – as if the hybrid somehow “offsets” the gas-guzzler. One commenter above got it right – the guzzler is for local jaunts and weekends; the hybrid’s for the long commute.
Generalizations don’t work.
