Vans and minivans do everything trucks and SUVs do, and they do it better. Every time. No exception. SUVs and crossovers are just worse minivans for people who think they’re too cool to drive a minivan.
And those outside of North America largely need not apply. I wish we could just have a robust public transit system here, but apparently, public transit is antithetical to muh freedum or something. Or so they tell me.
And that’s not even getting into the point the post makes, which is that these monstrosities are getting bigger and more dangerous to pedestrians, yet our governments do nothing to stop it.
I live on vancouver island and a minivan cannot replace my pickup truck in multiple ways lol
OP thinks their city is the center of the universe, probably American haha. Just because your area is flat and paved doesn’t mean the rest of the world is
Right? Dude, we don’t all live in a city. I’ve got four horses that need to be hauled on a regular basis. Your minivan or van isn’t pulling a gooseneck 4-horse trailer.
Even locally some people give me shit but then suddenly I am their friend when they need to use the truck lol
Montana here, my 4Runner gets me way deeper into the mountains than a minivan can, and I’m not inclined to limit my recreational activities just because some urban jackass who can ride the bus everywhere doesn’t approve of my vehicle.
