I understand that this is a rant about a niche feature but you know what we really should stop doing right now? We should stop producing giant piles of metal with four weels weighting more than 2 or 3 tons. No matter what stupid options they have, SUVs and big cars and trucks are a total nonsense. Sadly they are slowly becoming the norm. We should keep our vehicles under a ton so that we stop wasting so much of our precious energy moving these f-ing tanks on the road. Roads that we pay for and that are decaying faster and faster the more we keep buying them. Not to mention car accidents involving those monstrosities...

Sure. You're right, but I don't see how that's a relevant comment for this article.
Even saying this person is right is being generous to them.

The attitude that there is no use case for a truck or suv is quite the privileged city dweller point of view.

Cool, we must have TARDIS's now or personal levitation & force field belts or something to replace the functionality. Been waiting for that.
Of course the /r/fuckcars denizens have to get their licks in on every single online conversation about personal vehicles.

Cars aren’t going away.
