Thinking About Buying An SUV ?

Please read this first: http://www.gladwell.com/2004/2004_01_12_a_suv.html

If you still buy the SUV, stay the hell away from me. kthxbye.

I always knew SUVs were bad, but I only thought of them as bad environmentally speaking. They're bad because they're incredibly unsafe, and potentially cause more accidents and more deaths, than cars. Psychology is crazy, so to speak.

Update: If you own one already, please feel free to debate, I won't actually bite your head off. But be prepared to convince me that you need an SUV for actual factual reasons, like my friend Brad who does environmental assessments and actually drives it offroad all year long. If your best reason is the gravel parking lot at the baseball field, that won't fly. Just as an FYI. :-)
