My neighbor just bought an insanely oversized SUV for his “safety”?

>The average price of a full-size SUV is now $72,000.
The linked article mentioned climate change, but here’s the fun part: every homeowner who buys one of these “average” SUVs could install solar panels (average price: $21k after tax credits) and something more reasonable like a Honda Accord ($29-31k) and not only have a lot of money left over, but also save a ton of money in both gas and electricity.
But no, better to buy a giant vehicle and complain about why no one will do anything about climate change.

Getting into a car-crash with a vehicle that weighs an additional 1,000 pounds increases the likelihood of death by 66%.

I hate it. All these soccer moms driving around in farm equipment like it’s the Honda they had in college are a menace to society at large.
