You anti-SUV people annoy me. So what if I like to have a lot of room in my vehicle? I like having a big truck, I like the room, I like the fact that I stand a good chance of living when I crash into a tree, I like being able to haul lumber from Home Depot, my dog likes riding in the back. What harm does it do you? Don't give me the gas guzzling crap, either. How many of you leave on lights at home or don't recycle EVERYTHING or throw that can of paint in the trash every once in a while? There are a lot more things on the earth that are destroying the environment worse than a few million SUV's.
A road hazard? How? Honestly, that is just silly. Tractor trailers are a road hazard, but you aren't complaining about them!
