I think people who have never driven one or feel uncomfortable getting one and gets one because they feel they're getting more for their money shouldn't be driving them at all.
I think people who want one should rent one that way they have practice and they have to be careful with the vehicle because it's on loan but the one thing I noticed when just about everyone switched to mini-suv's and full sized ones and trucks, that there's more people who have never driven one in their life and it's noticeable.
I just don't want to be hit by someone who has no idea how to manage driving one because of their size and depth perception being thrown off other than that who gives a fuck what people drive. If someone wants to drop money on something stupidly oversized and uses a fuckload of gas, let em.
