deep snow or ice and I can drive it over a curb or speedbump without freaking out.
To me, that qualifies as using it correctly, so your out of the clear.

See, I'm talking about them people who drive 2 miles in a Hummer, through oodles of traffic lights, when they could take their bike and get there faster, or take their new sports car to work. If you have a corvette and you have a hummer, the corvette is gonna pull better numbers than that hummer you only use to get a frosty down at the gas station.

About that curb part.... I have to drive up onto the curb to parallel park, it's pretty funny, but that's how it works.

Didn't mean to cast stones, but I don't think anyone on this site that drives an SUV improperly. The types I'm really staring at is the soccer moms who think safety is the most important thing about a vehicle.
