Maybe I don’t want to have to set up a tether every time I want to work on my laptop.

It’s only partly about the environment. Mostly, it’s about rude people spraying clouds of completely unnecessary carcinogenic, stinky black smoke in my face. Not OK. I’m just fine with diesel until you modify it to make it smokier.
I’d say both, except that I’d run into that pesky Eighth Amendment.
Here, the object has to suffer to make the perp suffer. The perp won’t feel it emotionally nearly as much if the truck is sold as if it’s crushed.
Releasing giant clouds of carcinogens into the air for no reason deserves harsh punishment.
Good CUVs stop fine and get decent fuel economy. They’re no more cramped than a bigger BOF SUV that has its interior space eaten by chassis hardware and giant wheelwells.
Your thesis isn’t consistent with the numbers. In the early 2000s, sales of compact hatchbacks were very low and sales of big BOF SUVs were several times what they are now. Today, BOF SUVs are way down, big CUVs are up a bit but not as much as the drop in BOF SUVs, and small CUVs took up the slack (and stole a bunch…
Why is the Crosstour better than a CR-V? It’s bigger (except height), heavier, and doesn’t have any more space inside.
The door mirrors are good for visibility in the A-pillar area (where a lot of pedestrians hang out). I really liked them on my 2006 Civic.
I’ve come around to thinking these are a good thing. They’ve moved people from giant, thirsty, poor-turning and poor-stopping BOF SUVs into something a lot more reasonable.
Coal-rollers should have their trucks confiscated and, after whatever minimum level of due process is needed to satisfy the Constitution, crushed.
In-car Wi-Fi is going to be freaking awesome when the car is driving itself.
“Why buy a new S600 instead . . . .”
Interesting equipment level. It has the DOHC engine and no other options. A latter-day version of my '87 Taurus GL which had the V6, A/C, and no other options.
I want a “performance package” second-gen Volt. That would actually be pretty awesome.
The point of in-car wifi isn’t for the present, it’s for the future. It’ll be the most important feature in the car when the car is driving itself.
Rubber: bushings and tires. Without them we’d be rattling our teeth over every little bit of road and we wouldn’t want to drive farther than a few blocks.
There is no good reason to play electro/house/techno at 7 a.m. Ever. The senses just aren’t ready for it. My neighbor does and it makes me want to shoot him.
The R/T doesn’t have the suspension and brakes of the SRT, which matter more to me than the difference between 500 and 700 hp.
