So which do you hate the more prickup trucks the size of life with 8.0
liter engines and "fo' by fo'" written above the confederate flag in
the back window or the SUVs?  Since I live close to Indiana I hate the
prickup trucks.

WHy exactly are the bumpers of cars not all at the same
height...wouldnt the insurance companies want bumper to bumper
collisions rather than bumper to expensive-car-part collision?  Why
dont they set some standards that protect all drivers?

Plus they should have a standard for visiblility when you're behind one
of these truck/SUVs  If the thing blocks too much of your view at a set
distance then stop making them so big...have you seen that monster the
lincoln navigator, its stupid huge! 

What does europe do with these SUV's, does europe have a bumper height
law?
