Basically, I'm interested in finding out how many people share my opinion
And even more so, I'm interested as to why people would choose SUVs over (what I consider to be) more practical vehicles.

Here is our forecast for the weekend:

Snow showers will continue on and off through Sunday. Preliminary accumulation estimates range from 2-6 inches for the Denver Metro Area, as much as 6-8 inches in the foothills and nearly a foot of snow in the higher terrain of the central and northern mountains.

Wanna know how many people I have had to help around here during snowstorms when their "efficient" little cars get stuck? Hell, not too long ago, I needed 4WD just to back out of my garage so that I could take my sister-in-law to work (her car was stuck).
"Practical" is your opinion, hardly based on anything factual. For a family of five, in Colorado, SUV's are very, very practical. And, I use mine for more than just snow days.
