Useless? Maybe it's my lack of sleep, but I'm having a hard time understanding how a truck or SUV is useless.

I will concede that Americans like Big and heavy cars. Every time I talk to someone about it, they mention how their perception of a big SUV or Truck is that it's a larger,safer vehicle that isn't fuel efficient, but is more useful than a small sports car. But useless? Well I guess that depends on what you're trying to do with it.
