Don't think its the reading. I really don't get the point of the whole tirade. Snob appeal isn't necessarily bad. You can get the best and latest or most expensive RV, or the latest and most expensive SUV. I think the SUV has more snob appeal even though the RV costs more. The YS has more snob appeal than a Jett even if the Jett costs more. But that won't keep me from buying a YS if I need one.
