I learned to drive in a 83 Surburban, and a 80's model chevy 4 spd flat bed... so big is not new. Just something I grew up driving and really liked. Moved in to a host of W body gm's and while I did love my Monty, GrandPix, newer monty, buick I missed my bigger trucks
I was in mom's Burban, Dad's 3/4 ton, a grain truck just something bigger then the W body I had at the time.
So when it came time to move 3 kids to a bigger car, I was I really would love a Surburban, Dh was all for it as the one we liked had the heavier tow package so we can do the boats,trailers with not much of an issue. Then kids have 4-h, band and friends.
He thinks it was pretty cool that I got up in it and drove Nashville, Tn and not worried about hitting anything. He drives either a service truck with a 9 ft bed (work truck) or one with an 11 ft bed (farm) and they are no problem to me, it's just my life.
Also growing up / living on a farm a car just don't cut it going across fields. Lost or broke a good many air dams. I could have done the mini van I *guess* but its like the ipad, not everyone is going to like it and I am fine with that.. this is just who I am.
I am 5'5 so agv. It was my K5 that was jacked, and had the spot light mounted to the a pillar
Oh I also can drive a 3 on a tree... I don't know many ppl that can do that are even know what it is!!!!!

when i was married we had a 4-x-4-Surburban for hauling the kids around
I just bought an Audi S8, it's an older used one but a really sweet ride and get this car guys, I used the new iPhone app called Car Tell Auction Prices that tells you how much dealers buy their inventory for, it's awesome if you want to make sure dealers are not trying to take advantage of you. I'll post pics soon, I want to get my new wheels on first.
