Personally I think that most SUV's (nicknamed Stupid Ugly Vehicles by my ex-wife) would make good boat anchors since very few cities (where most of the damn things live) really need four wheel drive capability. Even up here in the sometimes frozen forth of New York State.

But they do make cycling (how I get around)fun and exciting, nothing like a huge battleship coming at you with mom at the wheel yelling at her kids and not watching the road, to make your adrenaline pump...
