He's an idiot, I live in Seattle, I have 2 small kids and my daily commuter is 11ss vert, yes I drive with top down and 2 child seats in the back.
I do make around 12-13mpg, but guess what?
I'm smiling every time I drive to work, and kids at my son's school are fighting for a chance for open the door
He should also add that driving into mountains for skiing is not very practical with Camaro, no place for ski rack.. and sluggish in snow
