RS>Jorge Fernandez strolls across the used-car parking lot littered with
RS>dozens upon dozens of sport utility vehicles the size of small
RS>tugboats.

RS>With gas at $4 a gallon, many have sat there since last summer. 

RS>"The cars are literally just sitting, and it doesn't matter how much
RS>you sell them for," Fernandez says of the SUVs and trucks nobody
RS>wants anymore. 

RS>"It's amazing. I've never seen it this bad -- ever."

RS>Fernandez, a wholesale auto dealer who has been in the business for
RS>more than 20 years, says SUV owners are hit especially hard. The
RS>really large ones with V-8 engines that can get as little as 12 miles
RS>per gallon in the city -- like the Cadillac Escalade, Ford Expedition
RS>and Chevy Suburban -- are dropping in value by the thousands.

What's the humor ?  It doesn't impact you or I directly but indirectly 
it does, since the price of diesel impacts the costs to short haul truck 
things.  I doubt your welfare COLA will cover the increases.
