Have any of you seen the South Park episode where the parents start buying Priuses? It talks about the vast amounts of “Smug” emitted by Prius drivers. Pretty funny episode.

jennyoParticipantWe have a 3/4 ton 4WD Suburban that we use for towing a boat, camping, and hauling our dogs and other things when needed. It mostly sits in the driveway. We put about 3,000 miles a year on it. It has vinyl bench seats, hand-roll-up windows, and smells a bit like dog. Totally classy.
Filling it up is definitely expensive (40-gallon tank), but we don’t have to do it very often. My husband rides his bike to work and I drive a 4-cylinder Accord.
There have always been practical uses for these beasts, even during the gas-crunches of the 70s, but when they became a blingy status symbol things just got ridiculous.

Need rental help. #198484jennyoParticipantIts probably somewhat difficult if she is looking for a late summer rental right now–6 months out. Have you/she checked the housing boards at Mills or Cal? There are often people who post there looking for students to rent rooms. If she wants a place that is charming/funky/urban Berkeley/Oakland/Rockridge, it is not easy. If she is looking for something newer or more southern-california-suburb-like, she might want to look over the hill in the Walnut Creek area. Its on the BART line and only a short ride to Oakland.
