And what is this talk about "why some people NEED SUV's"

Who NEEDS a XXX hp Viper? Who NEEDS a XXX hp Corvette? Who NEEDS to buy a 4x4 when they never go off roading?

Really, who are we to criticize others for their choice of vehicles? And GAS? If you're going to become a tree hugger, go yell at everyone to buy hybrid cars.
