Yep a buddy plowed his party wagon into a ditch with 10 people on board and still room for a keg. |
Agreed. But Op wants high up, for whatever reason. Peoples obsession with height is insane. You don’t need clear visibility for enemy IED or anything. |
NP, I'm not obsessed with height but I do enjoy driving my Ford Explorer which gives me a little bit of height. I can see the road clearly and don't have to worry about the bottom of my vehicle scraping the road anytime I hit a big bump in the road. If money was no object and I could afford any vehicle in the world, I still wouldn't buy a car. Cars sit too low for my liking. |
Preference is not the same as obsession. Do you think that people that have this preference are insance? |
You can't see crap when turning or driving in general in a car because EVERYONE ELSE is in a huge truck or SUV. Sorry, but until everyone else stops driving huge vehicles—which is never going to happen—I'm not buying another car. |
A vehicle that sits higher up is best for my joints. It's easier for me to get in and out. |
+1 I've always preferred cars, but being surrounded by huge vehicles has made me change my preference. |
| CRV is the vehicle for those who truly don't care, but just want steady, solid motorized movement from one point to another. |
This debate about sitting higher up has made me remember a friend of my family who drove trucks for a living. He once took me for a drive in his truck. You're sitting 6 ft high and can see a quarter of a mile down the street. It's like a totally different driving world up there. |
As another sedan driver, I agree. The view is fantastic. My next car is definitely going to be tall. |
