(EU) SUVs. Are you insecure and too stupid to drive? GET A CAR 20% larger in every dimension so you can piss off the whole world with your incompetence.

I live in a Dutch city and there's like 3 people here with dumbass cars like dode rams and everytime I see them the only thing I can think is damn you are an asshole. Those cars are ridiculous

They might just be Americans. Oh wait..

[-] sndrtj@feddit.nl 6 points 1 year ago

These huge vehicles (I can't call them cars anymore) also really don't even fit our roads. Do these people only intend to use their cars on the freeway?

They often also don‘t fit on European parking lots.

[-] bobdowl@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Totally true, I always thought that would be the case but there really are studies that confirm this.

Where I live an SUV is a must or everybody will bully you in the road. Public transportation drivers are just bad people here.

Or do you have a genuine reason that makes them advantageous?

I have an SUV because:

  • my mother in law has mobility issues and struggles to get in/out of a saloon.
  • my wife has neck issues and the higher driving position is better for her
  • I like it (ok, that could make me an arsehole)

Truth is that mine (BMW X1) is at most 5cm bigger in any dimension, if at all, than the car on which it is based (Mini Cooper). The extra size is an optical illusion.

Well then just block all roads and murder people while you are at it. A ok.

Would it be correct to sum up your post as: my family is so handicapped they can only drives SUVs, i am an asshole and need to talk about my COMPACT SUV because people in my life do not talk about it enough?

[-] DharkStare@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

That's similar to why I hav an SUV. My dad has mobility issues and has a scooter to help him get around. The SUV is higher off the ground making it easier to get in and out while the larger cargo space can hold the scooter and anything else (groceries, luggage, etc).
