WHAT!!! These wallowing land-barges couldn't possibly even get out of their OWN way. They just wallow into accidents, rolling and cartwheeling without provocation. You don't see Japanese or European cars crashing the way these "Yanktanks" do... zero suspension dynamics, zero handling, zero roadholding, infinite danger.
