suv's are evil in the hands of soccer moms and business executives who buy them for status. if those people stuck with thier caravans and porsches, respectively, the SUV wouldnt have such a bad rap.
*note: i drive a sports car. have always driven sports cars. will always drive sportscars.
BUT...i like the practicality of an SUV. particularly since i have so many outdoor hobbies and activities that require a trunk capable of handling more than one suitcase. do i think every SUV should have a powerstroke diesel or hemi? fuck no! cool hip mom doesnt need 300 hp and 340 foot pounds of torque to take her 50lb kids to soccer practice. gimme a fucking break!!! most people could probably get away with 6 cylinder SUV and get the same task(s) accomplished. the vehicles themselves are very useful and very practical...when purchased for the proper reasons. /end rant
