Because you'll burn up your minivan transmission trying to haul a boat or trailer? Sure there are some that use it as a status symbol, but there are many others that appreciate the increased ground clearance (and sometimes 4 wheel drive) which helps immensely in slick and snowy conditions... I don't know, if you can afford it, who cares? I drive a toyota matrix and I'm getting close to 32 mpg in the city. But if I could afford it, I'd be in a 8 cyl. 4wd Chevy Yukon with no regrets.

My Minivan gets better gas mileage, has more storage space, and has more seating options, and [last time I checked] was cheaper than any SUV I've never seen. I can't fathom why anyone would buy an SUV, other than as a status symbol.
