Center, Univ. of Texas at Austin Lines: 13 Zap-------------- many people seem to cherish the idea of getting 'the next bigger car' when the small size turns out not to be available. Well, I recommend that we consumers should 'think again' and reject that 'trade-up' at 'no extra cost'. Whom are they kidding, anyway. Friends of mine are touring Texas in a Pontiac Cougar now, in stead of a Toyota, and using twice the gas, and touring Texas means GAS. So, if we give them hell any time the try this bit, maybe they enlarge the % of Toyotas, etc. I don't buy that 'NO EXTRA COST' bit without suggesting the pay for the EXTRA GAS !!!!
