OT: SUV bashing was --->Re: Carfax Anyone???

I don't know how it is in your world but out here in CA, SUV's are more 
than just a nuisance.
I spend my commute worried about whether the next one will try to run over 
the top of MY CHOICE of car to drive.
This is of course while they are talking on the cell phone, putting on 
makup/shaving and adjusting the radio all at the same time.
At that point, assuming I am still alive, I will proceed to drag them out 
of their Land Yacht and beat the living #%&@ out of them.
I am with Eric on this one!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have more close calls with SUV drivers than any other vehicle on the road.

Why do I blame mostly all SUV's and their drivers?
Because these people think they are now safer and can drive with less 
attention and care than they did with the car they had before.

If they get in (more like cause) an accident they will be safe (what about 
the person(s) they KILL?)

HA!, you talk about your SUV being just a little less fuel efficient then a 
modded Scirocco.
THINK AGAIN!!!!!
My 1847cc 8V ~130hp will get 36mpg on the freeway and no less than 30mph 
around town and rush hour traffic.
I am very opinionated about this and name calling won't bother me 
whatsoever so bring it on!

If I ever buy a truck it will be for what it was intended for, hauling 
stuff or my Scirocco to the track.
Huggin' trees every chance I get 8P
