I finally get it!

Growing up I never really understood the appeal of an SUV, or girls for that matter. I mean what was the big deal? It was just a bigger car, and to me that never really appealed. However, now that I am a full blown adult who will no longer make mistakes aka a 20 year old, I finally understand the appeal of SUVs, and here's a hint, it involves girls.

Full disclosure, I may refer to a few vehicles that may not be SUVs but are actually crossovers or something else and if you can't handle that then you can go away (but make sure to come back for my next post I need an audience please).

Where was I, oh yes SUVs. I like 'em, and I want one in my life. I have a buddy who once owned a Range Rover Classic, and although it rarely moved because Lucas electrics, I loved riding in it. Later in life we test drove a 98 Range Rover and I realized why I loved SUVs.

I loved riding high above the other drivers on the road, and since I was in a Range Rover I am now going to refer to them as peasants. Now I probably wasn't riding very high above the road, but it felt like I was and that feeling was just so cool, and that is probably the best way I can describe it because I have a D in English. Riding around knowing you are high above the ground, and not only that, but it was so comfortable in that car. Maybe that is just because it was a Range Rover, but I felt the same way when I rode around in my roommates ~2003 Ford Explorer.

It's nice to know that I have finally embraced my inner yankee, and have fallen in love with the thing that has been seen as quintessentially American since the days of good ol' Bill Clinton and his saxophone. And as an American I look forward to my first SUV purchase, a Japanese made Toyota 4runner because they're just so cool.

Also girls like SUVs and will let you touch their butt if you have one. I think.
