Default So stupid!!

Hi
How is everyone? just thought i'd pop in a say hey..
Let me now what you think about this...

I live in the UK, and now all of a sudden our goverment hate's 4x4, they are starting to charge us double just to go into town, saying that all 4x4 are gas gusller's.
If you own a 4x4 in the UK expect to pay round about £200/$391 a year just for road tax..
It's getting stupid, even some town's are thinking about charging you to park outside your own house if you own one!!

Anway let me know what you guy's think..

Beckie..

I was in the Air Force and was TDY to England several times. Compared to the USA, they DO have a lot of taxes, sometimes on things that are really strange (to us Americans). At any rate, we hope to see you around here more often!!

I have got to say that really sucks. The gas prices alone would kill my budget! Good luck to you!
