The picture was just the only good one i could find on Google. White isn't exactly my first color of choice.

I don't think that is a valid observation. I believe that the rise of the SUV was originally a result of the tiny car craze of the late 70's and 80's. Everyone finally got tired of having to be a contortionist just to get in the driver's door and then having to assume the knees at neck, head resting on ceiling driving position and decided that they wanted a vehicle that they could walk, standing straight up, into and then sit on a seat larger than their complete former vehicle. Once people started doing this, everyone figured that this was going to be the next craze and followed these fashion trailblazers like lemmings. Accident protection didn't come into it on a large scale.

Whatever are you talking about? Americans have always owned big cars, right back to the birth of the automobile. Unless there was a US fad in the 80s for those tiny little European coupés, your average sedan both then and now is roomy enough for even quite a tall person (and I should know).

And that would make you just how tall, SA?

At 6"2' I don't have too much extra space in my Volvo...
