One of my biggest pet peves is seeing these mammouth SUVs driving along on the highway with one person inside, swerving as he/she talks on a cell phone. Reasons why this annoys me:

1) I like cell phones, they are incredibly usefull. Sometimes I talk on a cell phone while driving but not often. If for some reason I desperately need to talk on the phone while driving I SLOW down so I don't swerve etc. When I SLOW down, I make sure I am conciderate of other drives and get out of the way. Also, since my car has a manual transmission, talking on the phone, steering, and shifting at the same time is much more difficult than talking on a cell phone in an SUV (99.93% are automatics) and I manage just fine.

2) I'm glad to see that you got a vehicle as wide as my car is long and four times its weight so that you could comfortably carry yourself and your suitcase to work everyday.

3) What sport exactly are "Sport Utility Vehicles" supposed to be participating it? Is it the "I'm top heavy so I'll flip over into a ditch if I take this curve at a speed greater than 15miles per hour" competition? Or is it the "I get 12mpg, how far can I perform my "Sport" before I drain $20 in gas? (answer approx. 140 miles)"

4) There should be a "wide ass tax" on SUVs. If a Viper has a $3,000 luxury gas-gussler tax and an SUV like the Ford Excreation (I mean Excursion) gets the same gas mileage but is twice as tall and weighs four times as much shouldn't there be some kind of tax on that too? I'd rather everyone drive a Viper around since I can at least see around and over those in a normal "non-roll-over-into-a-ditch" vehicle.

5) One word: Firestone
