Took the words out of my mouth
I live in the northern edge of the San Francisco bay area. It is a relatively short drive to Lake Tahoe, and in fact many people from the bay area make weekend visits. Every day I see vehicles with the "Keep Tahoe Blue" bumpersticker.
Let me rephrase that: Every day I see SUVs with the "Keep Tahoe Blue" bumpersticker. In fact, I don't believe that I've ever seen this sticker on a vehicle smaller than the space shuttle. This fact drives me to distraction, and I decided to go on a rant about it.
But while doing a little research before posting, I came across Jeremy Zawodny's blog, and found this short but great post.
The comments come from both sides of the debate, and this sets up an interesting exchange. The only thing that I will add is a sad head shake over the comments by the people that state how they need to drive an SUVs and don't see the irony in placing the Tahoe bumper sticker on a Hummer.

LOL! I saw a mother of two in an SUV with a Maryland license plate that said "Protect the Chesapeake." I laughed so hard. And then, I felt really sad.
Why would ANYONE want to drive a hummer? Imagine reverse parking that thing!
(Incidently, i drive something as big as a matchbox, so even driving a normal sedan to me is like driving a tank - imagine me in a HUMMER?)
Funny. But all to common. Sadly.
too common
Really Loved Tahoe -
Snow and water skiing fun
Keep it blue! Boo hoo...
Need to go read the post to determine how SUV's are turning the water color. I always assumed it was the fish peeing in it....
Reese - I hear you.
Squishi - ittybitty penis.
PJR - thanks for stopping by. Grammar does not count at LP.
Diva - been to Tahoe?
David - LOL. I'm sure it is.
took me a second there to get what you were saying - i thought you were saying *I* had an itty bitty bit, but being female and all... I realised you couldn't POSSIBLY be implying that.
Then i got it.
I wonder what it says then about men who drive itty bitty small cars like... festiva's then?
:D
that was a compliment btw
Hence the wink. And not an innacurate compliment, if I do say so myself. And I have to say so myslef, because I don't know that anyone would agree...

Been to Tahoe a few times during different times of the year. Hope that it is still blue when I visit it again with my girl...
