I guess, but it still does not end the fact that most SUVs have comparable fuel economy to smaller cars. People blame SUVs, but what about V-12 sports cars, limousines and mid-size/full-size sedans and wagons, why blame it all on SUVs and trucks when in fact there are worse sedans?

And the reason I am so defensive of SUVs, is I have seen how fewer and fewer they are becoming. I am also aware of the unjust criticism they get. I know that the average person driving a Honda Insight cares nothing for the environment (but just about money) and is a snob, and thinks he is so big in his small car. I think people driving SUVs care more about the environment (at least on the North-West states), because SUVs enable them to seen nature to it's fullest.
