And is there a Site that I can Read About it for more Information. Not A Specific Make or Model, But SUV's In General? Thanks in Advance..

Please Post the Website as well. (: Thanks!!
No Im not trying to Purshase a SUV Just doing some research for my Homework. But yet i cant find that information in writing. He wants us to write an Essay on
"Are SUV's Fuel Efficient"
and we have to have an article on where we got our information from, But yet cant seem to find any.. They all talk about a Specific Make, But not in General.
 
A 2 wheel drive suburban can get 20 if you really try. Unless youre talking about a crv or an escape or something, those probably approach 30
 
No of course not. They're heavier and not as aerodynamic as cars. They usually also have bigger engines that just adds to the problem. Oh yea and lots of them have awd which robs more fuel...

Too many people get SUV's for just on road use. Its such a huge waste, why get something that's built to tow, or go off road, if all your doing is driving to work and back?

People seem to think that they're safer too but no they're not. They only make it more dangerous if they hit someone else. As the other person said too, poorer braking, and handling.

I especially don't like crossovers because they're basically SUV's that are useless off road. SUV's that are designed to do everything a car does, except with more gas.
