Actually in Ontario we do have licensing like that. So far it only applies to this one.

Dammit now I want one of those lol

The only reason they require a special license is because they have air brakes

I always had fast cars then I got married and then it seemed that i went to the Bigger vehicles. I commute 1 hour each way to work in all kinds of weather. So I have been through several SUV`s and now have a Toyota Sequioa. My reasons are comfort and safety. I understand your gripe Rogue, but an asshole on the road is gonna be an asshole in anything they drive. Always watch out for the old guys wearing a hat, they are super pains in the ass.

if anyone is interested, check out the hummer website click on the H2H page. It's a hydrogen powered hummer. there is also a small movie about how arnold is creating legislation to change california into the first hydrogen vehile powered state, replacing all the gasolie fuel stations with hydrogen refill stations. its a pretty cool vid if your into sciency stuff.

@Chase... you definitely have a legit argument... SUVs are safer... and you sound like a person that would pass a test if there was such a thing... but there are a bunch out there that don't have such skillz... I will be sure to look out those with the hats not to mention those that drive while talking on their cell phones.... but that's a different argument all together....

cool... and while you are looking at sites, here is the site that started this thread... http://www.esuvee.com/flash.html
It was a TV commercial here in the US

oh yea, i saw those "how to drive a suv" commericals. I should have been shocked that they needed commerical and a website for driving an suv but alas, what else would one expect.

I would really like to get into this topic, as i have alot to voice about it, but it makes me too fuckin angry.

@ harman... this is the thread for such rants!

there is nothing worse then a SUV driving, cellphone yacking, gourmet coffee sipping maggot doing 70mph+ in heavy traffic.
Yeah SUV driving test would help. (alittle)

Ok, but ill put it in list format:

1. Buying "stuff" for status-bad.

2. Driving a vehicle w/o understanding its limits and capabilities is just a dangerous as sending Paris Hilton and Jessica Simpson
into a Home Depot.

3. Putting spinners on an SUV (or any other vehicle for that matter)-bad.

4. selling cars to the masses that prevent drivers behind them from seeing oncomming dangers-bad.

5. Requiring another license for us to obtain-bad. Why, natural selection.

thats very true, i see tons of nuts in souped up hondas and other riceburners that are dumber than 10 SUV drivers combined.
