Ah, it's not that bad, it will only take up four or five parking spaces at the local mall And it won't cost more than a couple hundred dollars to fill up the gas tank

What IS IT with men and SUV's?!

Close. It's "What is it with men (or for that matter, women)of low brain mass and SUVs?"

I like having a vehicle that's big enough to be comfortable in. Any bigger is just too much.

--Baloo

P.S.: I don't know if any such vehicle exists outside of that graphic, but if it does, it is certainly a one-off show vehicle, and not a production item.

It looks like a semi with a very extended sleeper cab.

I doubt you'd be able to drive it without a commercial license, if that's the case.

Seen that before, it is a phony take off on the outrageous growth of the Sport Utes. I dislike SUV's a great deal by the by.

Well, I don't like them either unless that's the vehicle you need. If you have to haul horse trailers and cattle and farm equipment, maybe you need an SUV.

On the other hand, if you just want one because you like the "master-of-all-I-survey" driving position and the fact that any geo metro gets in front of you's gonna get smashed like a bug, I think you're head is filled with fertilizer. It's getting a sledgehammer to drive tacks, folks!

I kind of wish someone *would* built such a monster---the yuppies in my wannabe-LA town would rush out in their Suburbans and Jeep Cherokee Laredos and Yukons and Lexis SUVs to buy them, then try to drive a 4 meter truck into a 3 meter parking garage at the local Nordies, or scream at the valet parking kid to not scratch the paint.


Out here, SUVs have been mistaken for tanks with some implied guarantee that you and your 2.5 children will never ever get hurt in one. You can drive down the road with the cellphone glued to your ear and the car will protect you from all harm.

Some days, seems that most of the people in this pompous burg have "off-road" vehicles...and never go off road. They have "sport/utility vehicles" but they don't get them dirty---they buy a gourmet coffee on Sunday morning and pay Mexican kids to detail their *ing land barges.

sorry, this touched a nerve. I don't hate the cars so much as the wankers who expect special respect for owning them.
