So what is it about SUVs? Some people will absolutely refuse to own anything 
but - part of their image, I suppose.

They seem to think that if they owned a more sensible and useful minivan, 
they'd get called 'Mr. Mom' or somesuch.  The actual percentage of yuppie 
4x4s that ever need 4 wheel drive must, I would say, be in the single digits; 
the rest of the time, the front diff is just sitting there taking up space 
and lowering mileage.

Having had both, IMHO there is no comparison - the minivan wins out hands 
down for use as a tow car and baggage handler, and the Chryslers, at least 
are more car than truck.

Anyone understand the psychology of the committed truck owners?
