I was cocky like that when I first got my G2. I was in an SUV.. I thought... NO SLIPPIN HERE! I'm in an SUV....... No getting stuck here.. I'm in an SUV...

I was a cocky little **** when I was younger... that lead me scraping the guardrail on a snow covered highway.

lots of people thought that way when they got an SUV ... that why SUV's got such a bad rap (and why tons of people hate them)

I think we all know the logical solution here.
We all need a civic with a SUV ride Height (like 10 meres off the ground LOL). that way we are slow AND wont get stuck

hehe

Well there are absolutely no doubt there are bad drivers.

Good drivers with exotics, bad drivers with exotics and total them
Good drivers with sprot cars, bad drivers with sport cars and smashes them
Good drivers with SUV, bad drivers with rolled over vehicle
Good drivers with economy box, bad drivers with crapped up car.

So stop complaining and fit into life. Not everything is perfect, and you think SUV are the worst drivers, than your definately wrong.

never said they are the worst drivers .. I said some people when first driving an SUV get a false sense of security and that sense of security stays with them until something happens...

What do you mean false sense of security? Haven't you noticed the button's on the dash? 2x4 and.............




Invincible!
Once you hit that button, nothing can happen to you!
