socially-irresponsible crock

MSN editors recommended an article that says now is the time to buy an SUV.

How can it claim that a $12,643 Durango is "cheaper" than the "more expensive" Honda at $12,000???

Promoting gas-guzzlers so unabashedly leaves me wondering if the author isn't trying to pump his investment portfolio overly heavy on oil and Big 3 stocks. Furthermore, barely skimming the environmental impact is unpardonably irresponsible.

I submitted feedback strongly suggesting the editors reconsider their support for this article. If you feel the way I do, I urge you to do the same; if you feel otherwise, please explain why to me as clearly I'm missing that point.
