Another point that needs to be made: even though you may use your SUV for what it is meant for (in my case, towing), it still gets used as a primary car. I, and most other people, cannot afford to buy two cars for two seperate tasks, and as such, must make sue with what will fulfill both tasks: again, in my case, an SUV. My Explorer gets driven around town, on the highway, and wherever else more than it does towing. This is natural: I tow a boat a couple times a month. But when I need to tow that boat, nothing but a light truck will do.
Many of the people you see driving their SUVs around town may be in the same situation. They may have to use their cars a few times a month for what it is used for, but the rest of the time, it has to serve as their primary vehicle, because they cannot afford another one. I know I cant.
Now, that said, I think (hell, I know) the vast majority of people dont use the SU for what it is used for. I just make the point that because you dont see them actually using it to its capabilities doesnt mean that they arent.
