Because they're big enough to fit stuff in and still be able to seat the family. Trips to the beach, mountains, road trips, buying 2nd hand furniture are all difficult or impossible.
If you know a model that can fit a family, baby stuff and sports equipment, let me know. Suvs are too expensive
- eesmith 2y agoYet Italians go to beach and mountains, buy 2nd hand furniture, transport babies, and play sports, apparently with smaller cars. As supporting evidence, here's a link to Google Street View of a beach parking lot near Rome: https://maps.app.goo.gl/gLv4EJCTPRpLXQQu8 https://maps.app.goo.gl/gLv4EJCTPRpLXQQu8 . I don't see any SUVs. Here's street parking a bit south by the beach: https://maps.app.goo.gl/eGH9KFrkzYduv6cY9 https://maps.app.goo.gl/eGH9KFrkzYduv6cY9 When I had a 2-door sports car and needed to move 2nd hand furniture, I asked a friend for help, or rented a moving van or trailer. For that matter, when I bought a matched set of 5 big book cases, the 2nd hand store used their trailer to deliver it. That said, I also know how the US has locked itself into car dependency, making any other options almost untenable. Like it or now, you'll probably be driving your kids around for the next 10-15 years because the alternative choices have been taken away.
