Sport utility vehicles continue to be popular in Texas, with the state adding 1.8 million registered SUVs in 2002, more than any other state except California.
"Altogether, SUVs traveled nearly 315 billion miles on the nation's highways in 2002, up 100 billion miles from 1997," says Louis Kincannon, census bureau director.
"Collectively, SUVs made the equivalent of more than 650,000 round trips to the moon in 2002."
About 77 percent of all trucks were used for personal transportation in 2002.
and most SUV's and big trucks get what? single digit and just over single digit gas milage? Don't they know all of bin Laden's money comes from the oil/gas that they burn?
