SUV's, 4WD and a truck like hood/front end

they both seat 7 comfortably, both guzzle gas, and are ugly IMO.

If I had a large family, I think I'd buy a station wagon (subaru forester) instead of a suv or minivan.

and they think they rule the freakin roads, pulling into the fast lane and going as fast or slower then the rest of traffic, they don't understand that if someone is constantly flashing you the high beams in the fast lane it means, "YOU ARE GOING WAY TO SLOW YOU STUPID ****EN MORON.......... GET OUT OF THE FAST LANE!!!!"

Man. I've been giving the bird to all these old farts in their suv's/minivans...........

just had to vent

station wagons are fugly...i think you should just buy multiple 240sxes and let your kids drive them. that would be the pimp.

I HATE minivans!!! I would have an SUV only if I really, really, really needed one. But I too would go for a wagon like a SAAB 9-5 maybe.

Preach it, T. The Saab isn't bad, but I have to go with the Audi All-Road. Nothing quite like a twin-turbo wagon!

I'd love for S12.5=Chimpin' to flip me off in my Suburban. There'd be nothing left but a greasy stain and some 240 parts jammed up in the suspension.:D

Minivans are the devil.

The BMW 5-series wagon is bad-a$$ IMO.

I wouldnt own neither and dont plan on it. :pface I like my car I have right now. It can seat 4 but whoever in the back will have leg problem lol My mom will not ride in my car when its raining, she has the seat all the way back with window cracked. She hates the seat belts on the door (she's gotten hit by them hehe), my brother is too friggin tall(his problem not mine). Next car I plan to get will be identical to what I have now except that I want a nissan.

Suv's are too big, gas hogs (like said above), and some guy bought ran over me in my car with one b/c he thought be cool to get in turning lane and suarve around me when I was turning left, same direction he was passing. The things are dangerous.

Also, the "its safer" thing is bull****, a magazine(i forgot who) put out something saying that if everyone drove midsize coupes or sedans then everyone would be better off. also, they are rated with trucks in safety (when getting hit) and are rated very bad when doing the hitting too.

plus, you cant see over the god damn monsters

Dont seem good to drive in bad weather. You imagine hauling one of those big suv's out of a ditch or something or how bad it would be on ice and stuff.....i dont think I want something like that come sliding my way into my lil car. My cousin owned cheverolet suv...that thing was huge. I dont get how they saw out of the back. They got rid of it though.
