An exceptionally large
SUV.
During the turn of the century, Dreadnoughts (battleships),
like SUVs, were involved in an unending race to become increasingly large. Nations pumped vast fortunes into these resource consuming behemouths that never accomplished their stated mission of establishing naval superiority. This is similar to the stated mission of many
SUV owners who claim they need to regularly drive
20 kids to soccer practice of pick-up enough groceries to actually feed the entire
crew of a dreadnought for a week.
