"The average buyer is already opting for increased energy efficiency"

The average buyer is an idiot.
SUVs are far more energy efficient, actually make far more financial sense to own than a car does. The reason is quite simple. People have to carry stuff in their cars. People with SUVs make far far fewer trips per day than do car owners who must go back and forth, back and forth all day long to move their purchases from the stores to their homes plus any other things they must carry or hire someone to carry for them at real additional expense.

I'm really sick and tired of people dissing SUVS when cars are the real offenders. If everyone owned an SUV the amount of traffic on the roads would be cut in half easily. Lets not forget that besides carrying more stuff and therefore driving less miles, SUVS carry more people. Yes...cars should be banned entirely IMO.

Two sides to every story but in reality the anti-SUV crowd is really out to lunch and many of them are in the hospital after an SUV runs over their DUMB car:
