Dateline report

Watching a pretty ignorant report on SUV rollovers on Dateline.

There is a problem. And it isn't so much with the manufacturers it is with
the Drivers. HOW STUPID ARE THESE SUV OWNERS????

I watched a new Land Rover Discovery go up on two wheels the other day.
Young women driving with several kids in the vehicle. She gunned it off
the line at the light pulling far away of the other cars across four lanes
of traffic and turned left on an off camber turn. I could hear the engine
pulling like she had it floored all the way through the turn!!!

You going to blame Land Rover for that one?

Anyway, I don't want to start a thread slamming idiot SUV owners. There
are drivers of all kinds in all kinds of cars.

The real reason for this post. While all the SUV's they examined had one
or two stars out of five, the DODGE DURANGO had THREE stars and wasn't much
worse than many passenger cars. Go DURANGO!!!
