Especially SUV... The space for your stuff ist often less than in a station wagon.
I don't understand that part. I've got a 20-year-old f150, and it's roomier than my parents' new Highlander. That thing's fuckin' cramped compared to other stuff. Hell, the legroom in our 1991 Previa van is enormous compared to ~~nearer~~ newer Toyota shit.
I am 6' in freedom units and I was fine in 98 of 100 cars legroom wise, especially for distances within the city. And having a f150 because of legroom in a European city would really be antisocial behavior. You're a handyman, ok...but as a private person? My point is that people have a BMW SUV because I need the space for my kids soccer training , but a VW Passat station wagon would give the same space, steal less space from other people, an accident would be less likely be deadly for others involved and less gas consumption. There are people needing big cars, but most ppl do not.
Prolly could've put it better. Not that I didn't understand your point, but I don't understand how fuckin' cramped the new shit is now, despite being so goddamned chunky.
And I didn't want to sound rude to you.
I think I understand your point now
Oh, you didn't! 's'all good.
