We are all a bit tired of the anti-SUV thingy, but if you are interested in today's SF Chronicle story, otherwise forget it and don't read it. Surprised how much hatred and negative energy in these anit-war peace activitists. here it is:

Sue Thiemann, an otherwise mild-mannered Palo Alto resident and Ivy League trained statistician, has slapped hundreds of faux tickets on Bay Area "mega monsters."

Thiemann, who is 48 and married to a clinical psychologist, skips the smaller SUVs, searching instead for Suburbans, which she calls Subhumans, Land Cruisers, derided as Land Bruisers and Excursions, mocked as Extinctions.

"I hate them for environmental reasons. I hate them for safety reasons. Most of all, I hate them for the self-centered, self-absorbed, moral-midget rudeness," Thiemann declared.

We've got one of those blue 3-wheeled things shown in that picture here in town. I always figured it was electric until the day I saw it take off from a stop and a massive cloud of blue oil burning smoke poured out of it...

You've gotta have a deathwish to drive one of those sh!tboxes.

I'm all in support of GM or Ford developing a large SUV with better efficiency. Until that day comes, I'll continue to drive whatever large form of American transport that is available.
