If bigger is better, why am I trying to lose weight?

I am big on small cars. Actually, I am just BIG. It is why I am BigWarpGuy.

And what was the Definition of High gas Prices in June of 07?

And these words from the Profits of Profit

GM customer studies have shown that Americans, who pay relatively little for gas compared with drivers in other countries, generally prefer bigger vehicles, Group Vice President John Smith said in March. Rising gas prices are boosting demand for small cars, but truly tiny cars like the Smart are unlikely to make gains unless gas prices go significantly higher, he said.

How did that plan work out for you GM?

That article is from last year, but yes this does feed into the bigger is better theory, which BTW does not apply to an accident with a semi.
