I knew something was up with SUVs when I started hearing people say that they "needed" one "for safety" because their husband, or wife, or kid, "had been in an accident." When someone has been in an

Mark, you missed the point of Flounder's post. Not all of us live in San Diego (or want to obviously). We have actual weather here in the upper midwest as well as changing seasons. There are times wh

There are very few road conditions that an SUV will handle better or more safely than a GTi. ON THE HIGHWAY that high center of gravity, excessive mass and sorry excuse for handling make it a far wo

I don't buy it. I haven't always lived in San Diego. I'm from Maine, and there I lived on a farm ten miles from the nearest crossroad. Unpaved driveway. Think "mud season." For seven years, my only v

Excess mass does not always offer the necessary protection in an accident. The one that did me in was caused by an 80 year old lady in a Sedan D'Ville going through a red light and hitting my 33,000

I think the issue here is that YOU HAVE NO POINT. Your specious arguments have been repeatedly refuted and the only thing you seem to be able to say is "You missed the point". I agree that a 1970 Mi

Amazingly enough, many people have lived in the upper midwest for decades without needing an SUV. How do they do that? 50+ years for me -- often driving more than 200 to 300 miles per day. SUV's don'

SUV's. They bring to mind the Suzuki Samurai and the Isuzu Trooper and the findings of Consumer Reports. The magazine still has not lost a lawsuit! The magazine also reported that the NHSTA has found

Ok, Ok, already! I confess. I have a '97 F150 4wd that is rather hard on fuel. I guess that you could sort of call it an SUV as I have a fibreglas camper top on the back of it that is my sleeping qua

Jiminny, Kate, when people dump on SUVs, they're not dumping on people who haul horse trailers and whatnot. They're (we're ... I'm) dumping on people who drive them under conditions where a Honda Civ

LOL. Don't get your panties all in a wad David. :-) For some of us an SUV is a better choice. Your line there where you downgraded your GTI to "at least as safe" (last post it was safer than an SUV)

while some are better than others, most SUV's have a tendency to go end over end when faced by a brake/swerve to avoid/impact-type of event. Seen this twice on limited access highways at speeds of 6
