I received something by email this week that I’d never seen before and knew immediately that it would be my next blog post. I hasten to say that I do not share the sentiments of those who think the SUV is an evil enemy that is going to destroy life as we know it. That said, I do see the humor in the following.

Signs Your SUV Is Too Big

The last time you took your kids to a Monster Truck pull the parking attendants directed you right onto the stadium racetrack.

When you replaced your tires, Goodyear stock went up five dollars a share for the quarter.

Your garage is larger than your house.

One of those “Oversize Load” escort trucks has to precede you down the interstate.

Your kids refer to riding the bus to school as “downsizing.”

Before you go out, you have to file for a parade permit.

You’re the first one in your neighborhood to own a 2004 Halliburton-Rolling House S-Class twin-turbo.

It has its own gravitational field and has drawn a Geo Metro into orbit.

There are two successful Starbucks franchises located in the back.

It doubles as a carport for your Taurus.

It’s great for soccer moms, since the back seat folds down into an entire field, complete with goals.

You need a Sherpa and an oxygen tank to reach the driver’s seat.

Your buddy riding shotgun is in a different time zone.

Mortgage payment = $2200. Texaco card payment = $2201.

You get a letter from Hans Blix demanding that it be dismantled immediately because it qualifies as a WMD.

The fuel gauge doubles as a fan.
