Poll question: When you see an SUV...what % of time is there only 1 person in it?

[Beaverhausen]

1. 90%

[dolo amber]

2. Clearly this is a rhetorical question

I just happen to be extra annoyed by this at the mo'...I was driving around this evening with my daughter and we were discussing the fact that almost every time you see and SUV there's only one person in it, so we started actually counting...

19 in about a 5 mile stretch of freeway...:eyes:

:mad:

9. Only 19? Wow- that's not many for this area.

On one recent trip from Chapel Hill to Raleigh, I kept wondering where all of the other sedans were... I don't think I saw more than 5 non-suv passenger vehicles in over 20 miles of highway.

3. Don't EVEN get me started on the asshole SUV drivers

here! x( But yeah, most of them suck and there's always one short person in there--usually trying to runover my little Honda. :grr:

4. ahhh that last choice?? in the poll there??

that would be me :(

does it count that the back of the SUV's seats are down and it's full of some crap or another (one day 15 cases of red bull, another day 2500 cups and lids)

and my cell phone is plugged into a hands free device that fits under the head rest?

oh and it has a JOHN KERRY sticker on the back window

do you forgive me now?

5. The John Kerry sticker makes it forgivable.

Also, it sounds like you're one of the very few SUV people who do the SUV thing responsibly- for carting stuff, and doing it safely!

7. well that and climate control, I'd love to have just a pickup

but need to keep things A/C'd and out of the sun so an SUV it is

I really wanted a minivan but it couldn't handle some of the weights i carry :(

6. You have a legit use

for an SUV, please...by all means, have one. I really hate hating them only because it is a *free* country and all, who am I to tell anyone what they should or shouldn't drive? :shrug:

But at the same time, it's a safe bet not all these folks I passed wearing business dress and NOT using a hands-free set are out kayaking every weekend y'know?

8. ROFL yeah I get a kick out of all the $50K+ 4WD's here in AZ

not a one has ever seen a dirt road or a snowflake

[Taverner]

10. Yep...100% pretty much...

And it's always the same - some guy under 5 foot tall or a soccermom without her kids, wearing the CK hat and her hair tied into a ponytail...

[ilovenicepeople]

11. is the SUV parked or on the road?

Sorry I just need to know(I'm like that) The empty parked ones rarely have anyone in them,but I have to say most of the time theres only 1 person in it. Stupid Urban Values. HOWDY :hi:
