Yes, get the SUVs off the road! People got spoiled by cheap and started wasting it again.

And hopefully get
most SUV's off the road.



Sarmad,

It is clear you do not like SUVs. I tend to agree with you but there are exception. In my opinion, the use of an SUV in Los Angeles is a bit sill. The same goes for New York City, Miami, etc. However, my wife is always quite concerned about driving in the snow. Paricularly concerned about being stuck or not being able to get home. I bought her an SUV. It is unecessary in the summer although she drive very little. About 2000 miles yearly. In the winter, to here, the SUV is like sliced bread. She has less fear about going to the grocery store, etc. She feels far more confident about getting back up the hill to here when there is snow which is all the time during the winter. She really was never fond of driving a pick-up truck which she use to have.

I honestly do not know why people in large cities with no snow have a desire to drive an SUV when one may drive a far more comfortable luxury vehicle that does not have to be a fuel hog.
