Well, I think the prevalence of SUV taxis (mainly Ford Explorers) has to do with the nature of Miami Beach: A whole lot of tourists flying into MIA with a lot of luggage and immediately heading to the beach for a hotel stay. Can you imagine the percentage of inbound MIA people that are here strictly for toursism? So, with all that luggage, traditional taxi trunks won't cut it. I don't quite understand why there are not more min-vans as opposed to SUVs (there are a few, but not nearly as many as there are SUVs).
