Broad generalizations are indeed skidding wildly through this debate. First of all, many critics fail to note that not all SUVs are created equal. Today's fastest-selling SUVs are those like Dickie's RX 300, a so-called crossover SUV, or CUV. Whereas traditional SUVs are built on truck frames, many crossovers are essentially tall cars that get O.K. gas mileage. While sales of the largest SUVs dropped 2.4% last year, the crossover market grew roughly...
...Crimson was in control for much of the remainder of the first, but play was more balanced in the second. The Big Green got a power play at 5:03 of the second when sophomore forward Tom Cavanagh was called for hooking, but the Harvard penalty killers were equal to the challenge.
