I agree that most SUV owners don’t ever use their SUV’s as SUV’s however I'm the 1% that does. I live on a farm and use my SUV to its fullest. It sure is nice when the wheels start spinning and you just flick it in 4WD and go, no worries.

I also live up north and was in a bad snow/ice storm over Thanksgiving. The 4WD sure does help keep you from spinning out. However a lot of people think “I have an SUV I don’t need to slow down and can stop on a dime.” I saw several of those people in the ditch.

I can see why people give SUV’s, and their owners, a bad rap but some people do need them and use them as intended.
