“WHY are so many people buying/driving SUVs?”

It’s the station wagon of the 21st century. 20th as well actually.

Also, too many people have their tiny egos VAXXED against a 'minivan', which would be far more practical for them. Must have with kids.

Too many people have their self-image wrapped up in their vehicles.

Good, basic, point. I used to think all SUV’s were 4WD. Not many are.

Most cars sit really low, so they are difficult to get in unless you are really short. If you look at cars built in the late 30’s, they are like SUVs in seating position as well.

People like SUV’s bc they lift you higher up to see where you are going than a sedan does. A minivan does that also, but it is dorky, uncool. SUVs have four seats so taking passengers is not a problem. That is also why the extend cab trucks are better for many who have gear and people to haul.
