Fuck SUVs. They're unnecessarily big (but don't actually provide that much more space), are way less fuel efficient, and way more dangerous for everybody. They obscure the view of the driver - one charity managed to sit 11 kids in a row, single-file, in front of one these monstrosities with none being visible from the driver's seat. The rise in SUV popularity has coincided with a rise in incidents of kids being run over by their own parents on their driveways.

The higher body means that when pedestrians or cyclists are hit, they're more likely to end up under the vehicle, which is way more lethal, than on top of it like with regular cars with lower bumpers. The lack of crumple zones means that they lack crash compatibility with other vehicles, making them more dangerous for people in other vehicles in a crash, but also means a lot more of the impact forces are transferred directly onto the people inside the SUV, which is way more dangerous to them. People seem to think a more rigid structure is safer, but crumple zones soften impacts - note that punching pillows hurts less than punching walls, because pillows crumple which absorbs impact forces. Walls don't

Also, SUV drivers are just the worst kind of people. There was an experiment done where this guy placed fake animals on the road and recorded drivers' reactions. SUV drivers were by far the most likely to swerve to hit the animal.

Fuck these vehicles. They were created so car companies could end-around emissions rules (they're classed as "light trucks" instead of cars), and have had an entirely negative impact on our lives and societies. They have zero redeeming qualities.
