Everyone drives an SUV because ordinary cars are no longer made. Want a Ford Crown Victoria or Mercury Marquis (both famously popular with old fuddy-duddys)? Fuggeddaboutit. First they took away full-size V8 station wagons, now large sedans.
Be careful who you’re calling old fuddy-duddys....I happen to fit that description. Sold a ‘78 Chevy Malibu when we moved from CA - it was what I drove when my husband moved to other autos or pickups etc. The Malibu was totally refurbished - paint job and all - sold it for the same in 2006 as when we bought it new - $5,000.00 - don’t remember the mileage but pretty low as I didn’t drive anymore than I had to...went to the same location for our jobs etc., so we rode together.
