@christianSpaceman. Yes and... I reckon budget SUVs are more of a case of superior driving position arms race. My wife wasn't thinking "I want everyone to see my in my scratched and mud-spattered Nissan and think, oh wow, that car kinda looks like an expensive 4x4 she must REALLY be making something of herself". From memory, it was more a case of, why would i want to be driving at night with my face at ever other cunt's headlight level? I want a bigger car please.
Full disclosure, I hate our car. It's shit and I hate it. I'd like a cooler, better, faster, more fun car... but it's a mixture of thinking that being too into what car you drive is a bit twatty, being vaguely environmentally minded and having other things to spend money on*.
Is my cheap mummy-waggon SUV the old Yamaha acoustic with the rainbow strap? AKA the church guitar? Unintentional normcore?
