Public transit advocate (trains and trams first). SUVs are unnecessary, dangerous, and terrible, including EV SUVs. Do not drink or do drugs.

Frontover blind-zones of various vehicles including SUVs, pickup trucks, tractor-trailer, and military tanks, showing how shockingly bad modern SUVs and pickups compare to even military hardware.

This is not really an accident, it is the expected outcome of the design of these vehicles.

I was looking for a weight component and didn't see one. We have got ridiculously huge utes (nearly monster trucks) and SUVs in our area and they take up so much more space parked on the road and driving, they make it difficult to see around, they cause more wear and tear. Tax them more.

Shitty gas gargantuan SUVS and pickup trucks aren't being made anymore?

BOO-FUCKING-HOO.

The only thing that'd be better is EVERY Tesla factory and dealership and SpaceX facility burn down.

Interesting new paper on the challenge increasing numbers of SUVs pose to climate efforts.

Drivers of the Mazda CX series of SUVs are routinely dangerous, aggressive, anti-social motorists.

Drivers of VW Wagoneers? Even worse

Why do people who drive pickup tucks and large SUVs act like traffic rules don't apply to them?

There is no reason whatsoever to own a Ford F150 in the UK but some jackasses still do it over here.

Inevitibly they're worse than the chelsea tractors, but way less common than an endless slew of pristine white landrover discos and BMW SUVs.

SUVs of the bike world is not a positive reference. Everything that's wrong with American vehicles and roadways are embodied in today's SUV; too big, too heavy, too expensive, overpowered and threat to smaller vehicles and pedestrians.

They should reclassify SUVs so that they're not "light trucks" anymore.

How about getting cops out of their cars to do bike and foot patrols instead of ruining the streetscapes to make it easier to drive around in their patrol SUVs

Renting a vehicle in France this spring, and we needed space for climbing gear for up to five people... the rental place offered us an SUV: the gear didn't fit and it was way too big to be safe on steep, narrow crag-access roads. They found us a station wagon: problem solved. YOU DON'T NEED AN SUV.

You buy an SUV, I'm going to assume your goal is to be 77% more effective at murdering children.

Need to tax them appropriately in cities given the space they take up / damage they do to the roads / additional danger to other road users. If you step back it is utterly bizarre that urban city dwellers are driving large off-road vehicles around residentia neighbourhoods.

Suppose you’re wealthy enough to buy/lease a new car in now, and you choose a massive diesel SUV tank.
On 2025
You could choose all manner of vehicles, but no, you choose a massive heavy SUV.
In the past it was just choice.
Now it is a public statement of your dismissal and hatred of poor people
