I drive....
an old diesel Suburban.
I carry 5 other people with me in a daily carpool to and from work. Without the pool, that would be 5 other vehicles on the road.
For non-commute purposes, I usually ride my bicycle to get from point A to point B, unless I'm getting groceries, running errands, helping a buddy move etc.
In short: I am much "greener" in using my large, evil SUV to ferry 6 people (myself included) on their daily commute than the solitary driver who pats themself on their back every 5 seconds for driving a Prius or Civic.
So to all the presumptuous, judgemental letter writers who have bashed SUVs in this thread, let me plainly say: your knee-jerk assumptions are asinine.
And so are you.
Moreover, you're not doing the progressive movement any favors with your heavy-handed, holier-than-thou attitude...
Best regards,
A Liberal SUV Driver [Yes, we DO exist]
