Not enough discretion in deciding what is an SUV in my humble opinion.

Maybe it’s like porn; you know it when you see it?

The distinction is really not difficult. And I’ll tell you why: if a car manufacturer classifies a vehicle as an SUV, they can skirt around safety and pollution regulations.

That’s why they are everywhere.

That’s exactly it. They got marketed like crazy right before tougher emissions regulations came in around 2008 because they are classified as trucks and not cars. Anyone know if the truck emissions ever got restricted any after that time frame?
