Agreed. But people try to justify buying an SUV out of need and not want. I don't NEED a big block or performance car, I WANT one.
If you WANT one, that's perfectly fine. But I've noticed that people tend to justify their purchase with false needs. It's one thing if you live in a snowy area and your roads don't get plowed well. It's totally something else if you live in a sunny, warm part of the country and you say you NEED it for bad weather, etc. Many people who say they NEED SUVs could get by just fine with a car or van. And the line about SUV's being safer is BS. The safest type of vehicle is the one that avoids the accident in the first place.
