pedestrian muncher 

1. an oversized SUV or pickup truck with a high hood, native to rich American suburbia. The driver's vision immediately in front of the car is restricted by the hood, endangering pedestrians that attempt to cross in front of the vehicle; the hood can sometimes be high enough that a collision with a pedestrian impacts the torso instead of the legs, increasing deadliness to the pedestrian by several times. Bonus points if the vehicle looks capable of, or is advertised for, heavy work, but has never been used for it. Supertype of momster truck; compare compensator.

2. A person who drives such a vehicle, particularly in a densely populated area such as a city. Subtype of asshole; compare BMW driver.

"Damn, bro, look at the size of that truck..."
"Fucking pedestrian munchers. They come in from suburbia and clog up the streets -"
(thirty minutes of kvetching ensues.)
