WTF? Why should you get free internet access? You are getting a service for god's sake. Pay like the rest of us. Obviously anybody who is going to supply you with an internet connection is going to do so for a business reason, and then generally involves you giving them money.

She's definitely the female equivilant of an escalade with 22" chrome rims.

Right dude...I haven't been trying to win any argument. We are arguing over opinions, to which any 5 year old realizes there is no "winning." So, BTW, you never supplied us with the name of your preffered ride.

I'm going to attempt to end this once and for all... Some of us like cars, some of us like SUVs, some of us like both, and others hate both. Can we all just agree to hate on the posers who drive wasteful vehicles of any sort? C'mon we all hate posers right? It goes for cars too...I can't stand seeing yuppies driving porsches. Get a BMW if you want to be a yuppie poser, leave a 911 to somebody who can actually drive it.

Since when did I say landrovers are cool? Early on this thread I said they were crap and broke down a lot. I also never said anything about soccer moms are ok to drive them, I simply said that guys probably dont want to look like one. I stick to my guns, and I'll say it like I think it is. Giant SUVs suck. They are largely worthless. About 1% of the people who have them actually need them and the rest of the people buy them for the idiotic image they represent. They are a symbol of excess stupidy and waste, and I'd love to see a hell of a lot less of them on the road. BTW, I realize you weren't planning on kicking my head in. And I know I might meet some of these people some day. Some of them I already have met. I have plenty of friends who drive SUVs. I tell them that they suck, enumerate the reasons why, and try my best to get them to purchase something better for their next vehicle. If you really care, I drive an audi.

FWIW, I found sprint's out of city coverage sucked ass when I had it. I switched to verizon because my main concern is my cell phone works when I'm in small towns off the main I-5/I-90 corridors. Both verizon and AT&T seemed best for this.

Yup, about as clever as your oh so witty sarcasm.

Yes, but it's damn fun to run rings around the logically by pointing out that the buddhist guy and the jewish guy and the muslim guy are all just as damn sure of it as he is, and in their minds he is going somewhere bad.

Attention: 1/5 of the earth's population, minimum is going to hell. Yup, that's right. Any individual religion only makes up about 20% of earth's population, so that means whoever is "right", well, the other 4/5 of us are going to hell. It always cracks me up when my bible beater friends just "know" they are right about god, and it's not at all possible that the buddhist guy is really correct, or, gasp, that all of it is both equally right and wrong at the same time.

Yeah, just what I want to be carrying in the backcountry...a gun. FUck, get a clue.

A friend in montana has a '74 cruiser. that thing ruled and got us into hyalite day after day. It was much less trouble driving that then the giant 2500 GMC sierra dave and I had borrowed.

It doesn't look cool, it looks idiotic. You look like a fucking soccer mom, you poser. Also, you might want to check up on safety ratings. Your SUK is less safe in most cases. They aren't designed for safety, they are simply trucks with a shitty canopy thrown on and some seats added. They crumple like a pop can in a bad accident. They have to meet much less stringent safety standards than cars, not to mention they have this tendency to do something called roll over, which particularly sucks and is the easiest way to get yourself killed. all of you on both sides of this need to stfu! I own a small SUV, i have my reasons and they're none of your business. I also have other vehicles. whatever. besides what's wrong w/looking like a soccer mom? i look pretty good at the soccer games! Minx, it was established early on in this thread that the majority of people don't have a problem with moderate SUKs. It's the giant dipshit mobiles such as Pukons, Suxpiditions, Ghettoslades, Nadgrators, Suxcursions and the like. I'm sure you look great at soccer games, but most men probably don't want to look like a soccer mom. They think they look tough driving their giant SUK but they just look like yet another yuppie poser driving a soccer mom mobile.

Vehicles are designed to crumple for safety for the same reasons you climb with dynamic ropes instead of static ropes. Yes, crumple zones are designed to crumple. This is what cars have. The tops of SUVs on the other hand are not designed to be crumple zones, due to the fact that they contain the heads of the occupants.

Thanks, dipshit, but mommy and daddy didn't buy me a car. I own my car, and a house too, thanks very much. I'm glad you are helping to keep up the roadwars mentality. Hell, maybe I should just buy a mack truck so I can run your sorry ass SUV over if we get in a wreck?

Your settings are saved according to your user account. When you are logged out, no user account, so no special settings, and thus the colors, etc. look different.

Yes, indeed they do. Thanks to idiotic 1970s legislation that has been upheld with the help of great guys like our president and others bought off by the auto industry, SUKs are classified as light trucks. Light trucks have to meet much less stringent emmision requirements (along with the always mentioned EPA fuel economy standards) than passanger vehicles do.

Lame. If I'm up in Canada in the next little while, I'll make sure to proudly display my "no iraq war" and "bush blows" posters in the windows. Now if they were slashing Texas license plates...that's another story...

I'm not a hippie, nor am I war protestor. In fact, I fit into a largely republican demographic. I, however, realize that GWB is, like Iain says, the wrong man for the job. He's a bad president, and I don't care what the rest of the sheep in this country think. Most of the people in this country don't look much further than their own pocketbooks or what popular consensus says they should think. GWB is bad for the environment, civil rights, and many other things that I care about much more than Sadaam Hussein. Approval ratings swing like a sail in the wind. It's a joke how easily people change their mind one way or another.

about 16k. You'll probably want a yak train to get you in there.
