I think there is a general feeling of dissent for the SUV because of the fact that they take up too much damn space and the higher risk of doing something really stupid, like doing 90 and not being able to avoid a lamp post, or flipping over, or cornering correctly. If you want to drive in something that's safe, drive a luxury car (if you weigh over two tons and have a low center of gravity then you should be pretty safe), not the SUV, which is as safe as a tank, but doesn't handle as well.
