Seriously, if you watch ads for SUVs, they don't show the SUV towing anything, they just show it driving downtown with friends going clubbing or something, with trendy-looking people behind the wheel, to make it look like the cool thing to buy.........and then they show a "rugged" segment with them driving thru rainy weather or a construction zone, like as if a regular car can't do that.
I actually like driving my truck then my Malibu (and its an 08 so its the cool Malibu...lol). I like the feeling of sitting up high and accelerating slow. Also the truck is a manual and shifts well.
