Obviously it was the fault of the SUV, not the driver.

So the article itself is wrong and I'm sure that they did it so they coudl fuel the SUV bashing fire. :roll:

That's not an SUV. That's a mid-size van. Late model GMC Safari to be specific. Not a minivan because the Safari is body-on-frame and RWD, but it's still not an SUV. This is what happens when women try to talk about cars.

(Just messin' with ya, kid.)

EDIT: And yes, the Safari (and it's Chevy Astro twin) look very much like trucks/SUV's because of the target market for these mid-size vans. It's a niche market for people who don't want a "carlike" minivan, but want something that's more akin to a truck with body-on-frame construction and an engine that points in the traditional direction.

Oh chill out and RTFT. I SAID that my family has an SUV, I don't have anything against them.

I don't care if you have a SUV or like or hate them, but my point is people like to blame the vehicle and not the driver. The vehicle in question did not impale itself on a pole, the dumbass driver did that.

Hmmm...

Wonder when the Astro/Safari is due for a restyle, IIRC, it was based on the old S10 frame/driveline...

Thanks, HotChic for posting a cool picture.

Well... it IS the SF Chronicle, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.

looks like a Safari to me

 

[KMurphy]

It is a GMC Safari (van/truck class vehicle). Everyone calling it an SUV is an idiot.

That isn't a minivan. It's a mid-sized van. Bigger than a Mini, smalelr than a full-size.

It's GMC's equivalent to the Astro.
