    I’ve heard this plenty of times, but are you using that field? Are you using that forest? This road that road? Are you using the parking lot in Seattle when you live in Georgia?

    “We have the space for bigger vehicles” does not make sense when we have to drive farther and farther to reach things that are useful for us. (Also sprawling development destroys local ecosystems, and along with that, natural resources.)

    While I would’ve agreed with you a few years ago, it’s just not a realistic thought process when most people live their day-to-day lives in an area about the size of Luxembourg.

    Big vehicles are a huge waste of valuable resources that could’ve been used on other things, such as infrastructure, public transport, smaller vehicles. Etc.
