Yanno, that is something I have never experienced. I've had others tell me the same thing.
Friend of mine was gassing up her SUV, and had someone start ripping into her at the gas
station about how its the fault of people like her that gas prices are so high and all that.
(this happened in CT). I guess its geographical and social differences. Its farm country
around here and just about everyone and their brother has at least one truck in the family in
addition to a car. Many have snow plows.

Oh well... stupid is as stupid does...
