Hey, I come from a logging town and I accept that big 4WD rigs are necessary for some stuff. But here in Seattle, the main reasons for driving one seem to be visibility, safety and interior room.

Visibility - Yeah, it's nice to be above everyone. But that puts every one below you. I think the top of the cab of the largest SUV's must be something like seven feet in the air. With a lift kit and bigger tires, I imagine that can be eight feet. Still, we are Americans, and if the contest has moved to vehicle height, I imagine there will be nine-footers, then ten-footers, then......... In the meantime, myself and others who wish to be reasonable in the size category (If size matters, and you're happy with your penis, then smaller is probably better), can see approximately twenty feet in heavy traffic. This is the part I hate. I will do anything to not be right behind a HUGE personal vehicle. I cannot see.

Safety - These things' bumpers are right at about teeth-level for the rest of us. I wonder if I even need to say more. Yeah, that might be safer for the SUV driver, but is this the kind of contest we want to encourage?

Interior room - This makes sense when you've got the whole family on the way to a camping trip. Otherwise this is just not a justification. by the way, most of the world's families......can carry all their possessions on their backs.
