Harris,

Regardless how many vehicles you have, if you are like most people, you can
only drive one at the time. ;-)

As to your point on taxation of gasoline, in Canada, the "gummint" also
extracts a fair bit of money out of our collective wallets. I would not mind
that so much if the money was spent fixing up the highways and byways
instead of being used as "general revenue," aka "the black hole."
