Yes. I don't know where you live, but here in D.C. (Arlington) you see
lots of working class folks driving SUVs. I live in an apartment complex
that is working class and predominantly Latino and I see SUVs parked all
over the place. I just moved across town this sumemr from College Park
and the working class folks out there drove them too.

I used to think that SUVs were only driven by Yuppie scum, but earlier
this year it dawned on me that the SUV is the station wagon of the
90s/OOs.
