Everyone is free to buy the biggest heaviest guzzler they can afford for their daily commuting. Everyone is also free to deny the effects of pollution and environmental changes, which has been demonstrated ad-nauseum on this web site.
Along with using such a vehicle comes the responsibility of paying the potential additional insurance costs from accidents, though. (FWIW, I find it quite fraudulant that SUV's are smogged as trucks, and insured as passenger cars.)
Call it socialism, but don't complain when you're stuck between two 400lb'ers on a long flight. Can't have it both ways.

Bwahahahahahaha, yeah right, the liability insurance for my 86 4X4 full sized Dodge truck is more than the full coverage on my 97 Boxster. That is just dead wrong. I am being penalized for driving something that will simply walk away from a head on with a Starbucks sucking, econo box. Sorry but I call BS on that. The tree huggers can't have it both ways yet they do. I give them no slack on the road or in person. I will run them slap over. I would like to see where a Prius is cheaper than a real vehicle.
