One for the Ipod CNN Story Official Website Lyrics VERSE Let me warn you right now You're in for a war There's someone a waitin' To take your parkin' spot She's hell on wheels She's the new big deal She's America's true sweetheart Oh, she's a... CHORUS 90 pound suburban housewife Drivin' in her SUV Talkin' on her cell phone Oblivious to you and me Kids in the back seat watchin' the little T.V. She's a 90 pound suburban housewife driving in her SUV. VERSE There I was a-drivin' down U.S. High- way One In my little Corolla Enjoyin' the noon day sun Then all of a sudden I heard her engine roar With rhino bars scarin' little cars Goin' to the grocery stores. Oh, she's a... CHORUS VERSE She may be your neighbor She may be your wife She may be your mother for the rest of your life But one thing's for certain, I think you'll all agree With tons of steel and 4 big wheels She'll be drivin' like an S.O.B. Oh, she's a... CHORUS
Ha - that's pretty good. I noticed awhile back that it seemed all the big white SUVs were driven by small women, but I thought maybe it was just coincidence.

Ever notice that big guys also end up in small cars? you know, like the mini (original), or some other subcompact car like the suzuki swift (not the new swift+), Pontiac Firefly etc.
I went to the hardware store yesterday. A woman (who was petite) parks behind me in a big GMC Yukon and leaves the engine running while she goes in to pick up something (and it was small- not something requiring a big SUV to transport)- she was there at least 10 minutes. I suppose I should have said something (I would have, if I was more "pious".)
Awesome post! It's very true in my area. I see countless huge SUVs every day w/only the driver or minimal passengers such as a Ford Expedition today at a mall w/a mom and a small child. It gets a whopping EPA 14/19 or 14/17 and weighs 5352 or 5607 lbs. depending on whether it's RWD or 4WD.

It was the Ford Explorer right in front of me. I thought...boy is that stupid. I went to the Lawn and Garden area and spent a good 15-20 minutes in there and when I took my stuff back to the car the Exploder was still running. I saw the couple finally come out. The car had to be idling for a good 30 minutes. I really wanted to ask the people why they were doing something so stupid but you never know who's carrying a gun these days! I have a real shrimpy neighbor who is often drunk as soon as he gets off work (general contractor). He is a tiny man and besides his monster work trucks he also has a Hummer in the yard. Drives it around with his tiny dog in his lap........
