Strictly based on looks, CUVs are ugly, and yet I see so many of them. I don’t get why people like how they look or why this body style is so popular.

Edit: CUV = Crossover Utility Vehcile

    Minivans are a fair bit larger than most CUVs though. I’d love if something like the Astro/Safari came back to the market, but it’s not like they’re a 1:1 replacement. The Dodge Caravan is neatly 2’ longer than a Honda CRV, for example.

    What we really need more of is station wagons IMO and to fix our infrastructure so that people aren’t terrified to drive anything less than an WD turbo-charged car with 8" minimum of ground clearance

        Yeah. I loved my H6 Subaru Outback (totaled by a drunk driver at about 350,000 miles) and both my Volvo wagons. It really is the best configuration nowadays, but the station wagon name has a bad reputation in the US for being for old people.
