I like something that can carry cargo and still be comfortable. Modern pickup trucks are miniatures of the real thing. I can carry 4X8 sheets of plywood in my Odyssey.
I drive a four-door car, my wife drives an SUV. I see a lot of that dynamic where I live.

I’ve been in a few mini-vans, very nice! If it wasn’t for their soccer-mom reputation, people would be snapping them up left and right (at least in red areas).
I simply don’t worry about what other people think. Most actually don’t.

Not where I live...
And about half the four-door sedans are white where I live.
And around here about half the minivans are silver gray.
I had sports cars for years and they were fun. Now I only like SUVs.
That’s why people buy SUV’s. For the height.
And safety SUV rams into car SUV left over
Car rams SUV and SUV left over
Easy math and less hospital bills and a more comfortable ride
I am looking for another beater truck to haul hay, wood, etc. Doesn’t even need a bed in it, I can set that in place.
For me, cars have their place. Just traded in a M-B C300 with low miles and picked up an A220. Smaller for sure, but more in line with what I like to use for road trips. And the newer C300’s don’t have that great sound when you close a door. My ‘14 C300 is solid. The newer C300’s don’t have that solid feeling as they shed weight to meet mileage goals.
Just need to swap out the MOE tires - so darn noisy!
Too many cars look like computer mice.
I have a 2016 Honda Accord Sport. At least it has some chrome....
Think, or care? My meaning was that most don’t think. I don’t care about what is on their, um, minds.
