Don't own an SUV. I have a 4x4 F250 that I use to commute to work, tow trailers, haul construction loads, plow snow, and whatever need presents itself.
I rarely take a road trip, and the public transportation in Greenbrier PA is severely lacking.
So, again, please tell me about more alternatives that there are plenty of?
Well most of us DO have alternatives and use them rather than complain.
Sorry about your situation.
