    i hate these a-holes (and not specifically directed at noneck, because i dont entirely know his situation). but it seems as soon as an american couple has a baby, for some reason they think they need to buy a goddamn Chevy Suburban or something.

    my single mother had us three children in an '88 Camry, and that was just fine. in fact, it was better, since it taught us how to compromise and get along.

    Nowadays, every kid has to have their own damn ROW in the vehicle, watching some animated movie on a big screen and drowning in their cheap plastic toys... ffs.

    Sorry, if you haven't noticed, I hate SUV's. They are an obstruction. There is nothing "Sport" or "Utility" about them. They were created simply to allow men to compensate for whatever it is they're lacking in terms of masculinity.

    • Agree completely. PLUS they are not safer than cars. Roll tendency much higher.jacklalane
    • SUVs can be very utility-oriented for certain lifestyles or parts of the country.letterhead
    • bullshit. 99.9999% of these SUV drivers have "lifestyles" that include driving to Walmart and the gas station.iCanHasQBN

    • And I'm not denying that SUVs can be utility-oriented. I'm saying that it's NOT what they're being used for in americaiCanHasQBN

    • agree. it's a shitty design. acturlly, many of them are really bad off-road. they might look like they can do there but no.akrokdesign

    • but is wanting an SUV any different than wanting a sports car if you're just making trips to the grocery store?mg33
    • but sports cars are not an obstruction or a safety hazard.iCanHasQBN
