I wish they would quit calling those kind of things SUVs. They should call them minivans or station wagons. It gives those of us with real SUVs bad names.

yeah, i agree robinhood.

my sister is sold on those tho. she's getting as as soon as they come out. but she's a mom and doesn't ever intend to go off road, so it works for her. she really like they anti rollover technology in that thing.

i guess my only anti rollover technology is to remember not to turn too fast. and be careful offroad

I agree with ya Steve, those shouldn't be called SUVs.

My girlfriend and I are going to be parents in a few months, and we have absolutely no intention of ever buying a mini-van or station wagon. We're both truck people, so we're sticking with my 4Runner until it dies, and then I'll buy another 4Runner (probably a newer one, still not sure on the '03s :confused: )

But I agree with Calrockx on the anti-rollover tech, I like that idea, but I have my own anti-rollover technology... My brain and common sense, although sometimes those systems go out from time to time

I '4th the motion' of not calling them SUV's. A buddy of mine loves Volvo's & that one is great I'm sure, with some pretty impressive features, but it's more like a station wagon in my opinion with some off-road capabilities. Not meaning to insult anyone who has one, it's simply my opinion.
