    The same can be said for MPVs.
    But I agree - minivans are far much cooler, but unfortunately, they are an endangered species.

    False!
    Unless you're talking about crossovers, which, in my opinion, aren't real SUVs.
    The only real modern SUVs are the Ford Expedition, Jeep Wagoneer and Chevy/GMC Tahoe/Suburban/Yukon.

    This is the best minivan (at least according to my parent's insurance provider)

    But seriously, this would've sold better and Ford wouldn't have axed it had they not been selling an SUV and two crossovers at the same time.

    Exactly!
    Personally, I like the Land Rover Series II and Suzuki Jimny. Those are also real SUVs with actual off-road capabilities, not glorified crossovers.

    I personally like the Jimny because it's just as big as it needs to be. SUVs don't need to be these massive non-aerodynamic boxes, instead, they can be smaller not aerodynamic cubes

    And the Jeep Wrangler, as well as the Ford Bronco, Toyota 4Runner, Toyota Land Cruiser, Toyota Sequoia, and Nissan Armada.

    modern Range Rovers and other Land Rover products are exceptionally capable offroad, they just aren’t often used for such purposes

    Because they get stolen before the owners have the chance

    Car update here:
    20250101_155825.jpg
    Finally "finished" my project car! An 1984 Autobianchi A112 LX that was my first car. Next step is to upholster the interior with leather, given that the original fabric is basically impossible to find. Looking at a bordeaux interior possibly

    Wow, that's kinda cool! I can imagine finding parts for those is pretty hard.
    --- Post updated ---
    Once I sell my Eagle (maybe), I'm going to try to buy this thing. A 1963 Rambler Classic 660 sedan.


    The Eagle still needs some work done (trans pan gasket, door latch, timing, choke, etc.), but I'm hoping to finish that within the next few weeks, hopefully sooner.

    Someone hit my chrysler in the walmart parking lot while i was at work. Dented in the passenger front fender a bit. Flaked off some of the pain so now its gonna rust. No damage to anywhere else luckily. So now i gotta fix that. I parked way back in the farthest corner of the parking lot away from everybody and still got hit. smh. Car was perfect body wise now it looks trashy. Was dark and i was backed into the parking spot with my passenger side facing away from me so i didnt notice it yesterday after work then today i had to take my mazda to school cause its trash day and my mazda would block the garbage truck. I only noticed it when i got back home and was bringing the trash cans back up and went on the passenger side of my chrysler and saw my whonle front right fender crushed in.

    That's too bad. Hopefully you can get it fixed for cheap, or maybe find a new fender?

    That sucks.

    For some reason, people always want to park next to other cars, even if there is an entire empty parking lot near you. My mom had her car door-dinged two years ago when someone decided to park right next to her, even though she was literally one of only three cars in the entire parking lot.
