When I think of SUV's and most of the folks that drive them, its usually not in a positive light. Or let me put if this way, many people that own SUV's drive them exclusively on road, as opposed to off road, many of them are status conscious show offs, and many of them can't drive worth a damn. This is in contrast to the general profile of the riders on this list. BTW, we own an SUV, that has NEVER been off road, so I'm not necessarily against SUV's, or the people that own them, I just think there's a real negative association with the term.  Kind of like the Harley thing. Unfortunately, having a Harley seems to be a huge fad now, and there is a real negative view by many, of Harley riders out there. They're posers, they're not friendly, they don't wave. Well, those are all generalizations, just like my comments on SUV's, and they don't apply to all Harley riders, but there is that perception out there. Ok, if I don't like the SUV tag line, what's my suggestion? Umm, haven't come up with one yet, but I will see what I can do. Just my .02 cents. Ed Duvall, WA '96 KLX650R '82 Katana 1000
