Need more ‘cool’ cars for regular people to buy, then they might want to go look at them. Nobody is going to an auto show to see a Nissan Kicks

I mean, lets face it, these are pretty uninteresting cars to most of us and probably worthy of a little derision.

If the seat is a similar spot (aisle for aisle, etc) I’ll usually oblige the request.
Recently an older gentleman asked me to switch his middle seat for my aisle seat and said he had bad circulation in his legs. I agreed since it was a short flight, even though I specifically picked the aisle because I’m taller and…
