Plot

Sooga Village gets another visit from Tex Lugie and Sloppy Sue, the large and loud tourists who first appeared in "Sooga Size Me". This time they've arrived in a huge leaky oil tanker and set up an SUV factory, selling their gas-guzzling behemoths to the Sooga residents by seducing them with "that new car smell." To support the village's new appetite for fuel, Tex and Sue follow up with oil drilling rigs scattered throughout Sooga. When the environment falls victim to pollution and global warming, it's up to Pucca to save the day!

Pucca takes to the SUV-clogged streets in her shiny new pedal-powered car. With the help of best friend Ching as well as Santa and his reindeer-powered sleigh, they manage to run Tex and Sue's SUV into a mud pit. However, the SUV transforms into a new giant robot and goes on a rampage through Sooga in pursuit of Pucca. She is able to stop the robot by turning on her radio, but her success is short-lived because her car battery suddenly dies. Pucca comes up with a new strategy, tripping up the robot and destroying it. Tex and Sue are forced to eject from the robot and leave the island.

Although the visitors are now gone, Sooga Village has a new problem-- a glut of unwanted SUVs. Pucca solves the issue by creating a drive-in theater using stripped-down SUVs as seating. Pucca's clever reuse efforts are duly rewarded when she gets plenty of kissy-face with Garu on movie night.
