Why so much hatred for 4x4's & SUV's?

Could it be a close relationship between the usable parts of a prostitute and the distinct similarity to many 4x4 drivers?
:rotfl:
He he...
Workshop humour
Now you MUST have some stories for that thread I've started, you know, the one that's doing really really badly so far.............
Or maybe suggestions on how to get dog sick out of car seats.
4x4's have plenty of room for dogs - guess we're back to the prostitute thing again...Genie

Its disgusting, offensive & just plain nasty.
I wouldn't let the opinion or comments of an idiot prompt you to waste your time replying.

No, it's still legal if money or goods change hands.
"Prostitution - exchanging participation in sexual activities for money or other goods - has always been legal in the UK."
There is a reasonable explanation here:

The Law is strange, it's rather like the Law on CB radios (remember those ?), it was legal to own one but illegal to use it !
It is legal to be a prostitute but how you do it may well be illegal.0 -

When is Top Gear back on? Sundays just aren't the same - and, and.... where was Top Gear dog in the last series??? I love him, poor thing was sick in the back of the car in the caravan one.....bless
Top Gear is shown just about continuously on Dave. Seems like it anyway0 -
Just to get this thread back on track.........
I am the proud owner of two 4x4's - large ones in fact - a Discovery 3 and a Mercedes GL (probably the biggest full size 4x4 on sale). The hatred of 4x4 in this country is completely irrational and based on fiction, lies and utter B*****t, usually coming from the mouths of politicians and the 'Green' lobby.
The Government quite happily use them as an excuse to fleece the motoring public quoting the reason as Green/Environmental taxes - this is the biggest swindle ever perpetrated on the tax paying public.
With regards to pollution - we need to put that into perspective
Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere = 0.039% by volume FACT
carbon cycle proportion of carbon dixoide contributed by mankind 3.4% (IPCC)
UK contribution to global emissions 2% (DEFRA)
Proportion of this due to cars = 16% (DEFRA again)
So cars in the UK are responsible for 16% of 2% of 3.4% of 0.039% which is precisely b****r all. Globally - just take out the 2% and it increases from !!!!!! all to naff all.
If you go further, and consider the devil's chariot (the 4x4) then as these make up 8% of UK car sales (SMMT) then they are responsible for 8% of 16% of 2% of 3.4% of 0.039% which is the square root of b****r all !
Now where are these environmentalist????0
