A lot of people have taken a rather negative interpretation of this post. I certainly see how it could be read that way, but let's for a second assume that maybe the author is just a little tone-def, perhaps didn't score top of the class in social awareness (a trait perhaps others here might share).

Perhaps what the author meant by saying that they are a small fleet owner is that they for professional reasons are highly aware of side=effects and negatives consequences of salting roads, things which also hit people who don't have a fleet of cars they are managing.

When you have a fleet, you have more data points than when you only have a single car.

And yes, I've been poor and homeless myself, so I am speaking from an understanding of what it means to be on the edge (and sometimes on the wrong side of the edge).
