Nay. It might have become unfashionable to care about air quality, but I'm still fond of breathing. To me, there is no reason to weaken air standards so that SUVs can become more common. It doesn't take Sigmund Freud to realize that half the men who drive them do so to psychologically compensate for a rather inexpressible deficiency. I would suggest to use public transportation of walk. It's really not that difficult to do either.
