Most people in the US hate each other and their children, so they need a huge house and a huge car to be “with” them while also staying as far apart as possible.
I do admit my house is huge by most standards but I run a basement studio/jam space out of it. My hobbies take up a lot of space…music recording, retro gaming etc
Some of my best memories of my siblings are from being crammed in the back seat of a car during a road trip with our Gameboys, trading pokemon and playing through Zelda : Legend of Time/Seasons and swapping catridges on the way back.
There really aren’t large vehicles - in american sense - in Europe. We’ve got x7, gls, older gl, maybe a few more; but they’re nothing against escalades, navigators and whatever lorries ford has on offer.
I see ford excursions on the daily. Usually driven by 1 40 ish year old mom. 30 ft vehicle, probs about 7k lbs.
We need to limit these people from owning these dangers to society.
The issue is, car makers killed the wagon. Literally the best “american” family road trip type vehicle, and you literally cannot buy one.
If subaru brought back the wagon wrx right now I’d buy it. But they won’t. Also it would be loaded with spyware and bullshit tech no one wants so yeah. I’ll be fixing up old cars until i die because all new cars are basically corpo shit. I just want a fucking manual 99 civic thats brand new. I’ll pay full cash, carmakers.
For that kind of money - you can literally build one yourself using and old chassis. Might even end up cheaper. I’m a BMW guy myself, so I have realoem.com to help me, but Subaru has a massive following as well - I’m sure there’s some sort of equivalent.

Again - this is not US. I really wish you stopped making shit up.
I realize the pic is not US. large vehicles in European countries are really quite stupid. I’m surprised they’re legal.

Right, no kidding.

Only really addressing your last sentence.
