True, but the vehicle in all likelihood was purchased out of “fuck you i’m rich/leveraged to the tits, I deserve a gas guzzler the likes of which Mansa Musa would find ostentatious” mentality.
While it’s probably true that most oversized SUVs are owned by people that don’t need them, “soccer mom” specifically refers to someone that would need that space, since they’re the one that drives their kids (and their friends) to and from soccer practice.
kids here get around mostly by e-scooter/bike or bus, though obviously not e-scooters before a couple years ago.
It’s so much nicer for everyone, the kids get freedom and to hang out with their friends while travelling, parents save money and time by not driving needlessly, and everyone else gets fewer cars on the road.

It’s insane that anyone needs to drive their kids on a regular basis (unless they actually live rurally) though
I take it you didn’t have a very active childhood.
