It's funny to see people with puzzed looks on thier faces. It's as if they are thinking, "Wait, stop that! Have you no respect for your disability?"

I think we should call the xB a UUV
Urban
Utility
Vehicle
I stood in line for like a half an hour waiting for them to decide what to call my xB at the DPS down here in Texas, I showed them my registration from Idaho that called it a wagon, and they still insisted on calling it a 4-dr car, even after I told them that the hatch qualified as a door. Whatever.

I found somethin interestin. We should call em MPV's like the site here says. Er, they dont specifically say it, but it fits their designation pretty well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_cla...ion#Small_MPVs

super micro machine
I like the UUV...must be my military backround. But wouldn't it make more sense to designate it a "microvan"...as more models of this size/type configuration are proliferated throughout the world and making their way to the US? Microvan could be the new symbol for special low registration and insurance costs around the country!
