Oh, forgot, what the heck does comparing a hybrid grocery getter to a diesel 1 ton do anyway? ( I know, you were just bitterly lamenting and stirring the pot at the same time…)
That’s like saying the payoff on your refrigerator is better than the payoff on your stove.
I mean they both do stuff to food for you but just because they’re both located in the kitchen doesn’t mean anything….
