    If we are going to leave the carve out for SUVs and Work Trucks, we need to at least:

    A) repeal the tariffs on light trucks such as the Isuzu light truck.

    B) require a business licence to purchase these “work vehicles”, and require a CDL to drive them.

    That will reverse this trend tout suite.

      I’d wager most people have been in one considering how common they are, doesn’t make them any less terrible. Size is definitely a problem, they are very space inefficient, and quite dangerous. The center of gravity is very high, and because the front end is high up, anyone hit by it is more likely to end up under the vehicle. The solution is to lower them down to make them safer, and replace them with safer and more efficient vehicles like station wagons and minivans.
