345. People have a right to buy and drive SUVs, they are a very small part of
the problem.

The debate on who is wasting gas should include all of those who drive economical cars but drive hundreds of miles a week. Also those who use off road recreational vehicles and motor boats and those old couples roaming around the country in motor homes.

Just picking on SUV owners seems to be a little too narrow of a scope and a bit self righteous.

How about voting for SUVs to get good mileage or run on alternative forms of energy?
