SUV in towns

So that's why SUVs are so popular in town. You can park them anywhere.

At what point, when you're in the process of running over a stationary obstacle, do you make the decision to stop and see what's wrong, or just try to maintain your forward momentum and hope for the best? That's a classic. -- Curt

I guess this highlights a potential negative of full time AWD - when you turn a corner too quickly the fronts pull your a$$ into the air. Or maybe a soccerball got stuck under the throttle....

(full disclosure: I have a Suburban for road trips, mountains and Home Depot runs...)

Tired of the routine around-town errand running, a depressed 4Runner startles its suburbanite owner at a gas station with a desperate attempt to display its off-road prowess. The befuddled owner walks away and decides to get a Lexus RX300.

Drivers are getting more creative in the search for parking spaces.

But the police are cracking down and towing away illegally parked cars.
