I am SO INSULTED!  <smile>

My wife and I both have SUV's and I gladly pay the higher cost
of non-renewable energy (ok, 10% is ethanol grown right here),
to be able to travel freely no matter the season. So far this
year, I've been able to work three full days that most employees
had to personal time for. So far this year, my wife's work has
taken across state several times in rather inclement weather. 
This ability to go without cancelling has been worth well over a
thousand dollars in income JUST this past month. And then there
are the other issues of size/comfort of the occupants, carrying
stuff (we carry display and electronic equipment, cameras and
bags for four people), etc.  Oh, occasionally they do go off
road for recreational purposes too.

But, the biggest reason to own a nice SUV?  Drumroll please....

Dropping the kids off at the private school surrounded by even
nicer and more expensive SUV's.

That all said, I'd get a econobox for the bulk of my commuting,
except I've run the numbers and unless the gas price goes back
over $2.20 a gallon again, it just isn't economically feasable.

Mandetory Olympus content:  I've got pictures of my jeeps with
the OMs.
