	SUV ROLLOVER- Information and News on SUV Rollovers
		SUVs are supposed to be able to carry a heavy load of people, equipment, etc, over any type of terrain.
		Given a real world scenario, the SUV would probably have cargo, multiple passengers, etc. This extra weight would definitely lower the ratio to dangerous levels if an accident were to occur at normal highway speeds.
		SUV rollovers are almost three times more likely to occur than the average passenger car, and government tests indicate the most stable SUV is still more unstable than the most unstable car.

	Sport utility vehicle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		SUVs are often used in places such as the Australian Outback, Africa, the Middle East, Alaska, Northern Canada and most of Asia, which have limited paved roads and require the vehicle to have all-terrain handling, increased range, and storage capacity.
		SUV clubs often promote this ideal and a commercial manifestation of this can be seen in the number of tourism operators dependent on SUVs for their activities, Australia being a strong example.
		This is in part because the collision of an SUV with a pedestrian tends to impact the chest, while the collision of a car with a pedestrian tends to impact the knees.

	Crossover SUV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A crossover SUV (also called CUV for Crossover Utility Vehicle) or XUV (not to be confused with GMC's Envoy XUV) is an automobile with a sport utility vehicle appearance but is built upon a more economical and fuel-efficient car-based platform.
		Traditionally, SUVs were heavy-duty truck-based appliances, with body-on-frame construction.
		The Subaru B9 Tribeca is a dedicated 3-row SUV redesign starting with the Legacy platform, while the popular Honda Pilot is a redesign of the Honda Odyssey minivan, and the Honda Ridgeline is a crossover pick-up truck.

	SUV Environmental Concerns (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		SUVs represent a paradox to consumers - television advertisements present them as a way to return to nature, yet they actually accelerate existing environmental problems.
		In fact, some SUV, like the massive Ford Excursion, are so large that they no longer qualify as "light trucks," and are not subject to any kind of fuel economy standards.
		SUV drivers are not to blame for the lower fuel economy and emissions standards that these vehicles enjoy, and SUV drivers are not to blame for automaker's lack of innovation and improvement.

	SUV Rollover Attorney Sport Utility Vehicle Accident
		Because SUVs are often taller than regular passenger cars but not wider at the wheelbase, maneuvers that would not cause a regular car to roll over often can cause an SUV to rollover.
		SUV rollover accidents accounted for just 3 percent of all U.S. auto accidents in 2001, but caused nearly a third of all vehicle-occupant fatalities, and an SUV occupant was more than three times as likely to die as a result of a rollover as an occupant of a passenger car.
		SUV rollovers lead to fatalities because passengers are often thrown from SUVs.

	Why SUVs Suck and Why Do So Many People Buy SUVs
		One side of the debate we have the pro SUV crowd that feels that the larger size of the SUV is a measure of safety, and that it is anti American to tell others what they should or should not drive.
		The only thing an SUV is suppose to have is 4x4 capability which is useless in urban settings and for the most part SUVs on the market lack a true low gearing ratio, solid axle and ladder frame, sliders, etc. necessary for true outback vehicles.
		If an SUV is suppose to be able to be used in the bush, then why build a unibody (I’ve been in south america, central asia, etc., where a typical SUV with a unibody sold in the states would fall apart).

	AlterNet: Bumper Mentality
		He says, too, that SUV drivers generally don't care about anyone else's kids but their own, are very concerned with how other people see them rather than with what's practical, and they tend to want to control or have control over the people around them.
		Affluent and often socially liberal, baby boomers have embraced the four-wheel-drive SUV as a symbol of their ability to defy the conventions of old age, of their independence and "outdoorsiness," making the off-road vehicle a force to be reckoned with on the American fltop.
		In their attempt to appear youthful and hip, SUV owners have filled the American highways with vehicles that exact a distinctly human cost, frequently killing innocent drivers who would have survived a collision with a lesser vehicle.

		The SUV is far from dead, but just as SUVs gave minivan buyers a new and more-fashionable alternative, CUVs will continue to have the same effect on the SUV market.
		As we've seen with SUVs and CUVs, the choice broadly runs on two paths: so-called “full-time” AWD systems that always deliver torque to all four wheels, and the part-time variety that in normal operation drives the wheels of just the front or rear axle.

		The smell of carb solvent is actually kind of pleasant to me (even though I wear gloves now when I handle it), and one wonderful thing about Tenacious G is that she doesn't go ballistic when I wash small parts in the kitchen sink.
		I drive an SUV and the reason I do so is because I am a oversized person and a bit of a clausterphobic.
		That puts me in a minority I am sure--most don't even go offroad with their SUV, it is my understanding, but mine seems to steer towards mud and dirt--I like to reward it as often as possible.

	Car Rants: WHY I HATE SUVs
		There are too many SUVs on the road and the vast majority of them are driven by the wrong people for the wrong reasons.
		But if, like almost all SUV drivers, you simply need to take yourself, (occasionally) one or more human passengers and a little bit of inanimate stuff from point "A" to point "B" on paved roads, this automobile design became outdated 20 years ago at the latest.
		But they don't ask themselves whether being in the SUV may have contributed to the accident in the first place: With a higher center of gravity, poor handling and terrible stopping power due to the extra mass of the vehicle, I think this is a real factor in a lot of accidents.

	DAILY EDITION: Nov. 19, 2003 - The Car Connection
		SUV and trucks with the worst gas mileage also provide automakers with the highest per-unit profit.
		But with the growth in large personal-use SUVs like the Hummer H2, Lincoln Navigator, and Chevy Tahoe, the code has had the effect of incentivizing realtors, accountants and other independent business owners to buy gas-guzzling SUVs instead of more fuel-efficient passenger cars or even smaller SUVs.
		The lithium-ion battery being used in the project is expensive to replace, justifying the work on perfecting a power system that keeps the battery active for longer than the 30,000 miles seen in previous electric-vehicle efforts.
