F**k all you fashionistas who buy SUVs

[Fangle]

My wife’s friend has just traded in her small car for an SUV. As an older woman she has been finding it difficult to get in and out of the low slung car.

What kind? My gran is 82 and finds it tricky to get into her Ford Explorer. Banged up her shin a month or so ago and, having some paper thin skin issues, tore it up pretty bad.

My wife thinks it is a Kia. This lady is tall so higher cars are no problem to her. I tore my quadriceps tendon a couple of months ago, and find it a lot easier to get in and out of my 2002 Honda minivan than my daughter’s Jetta.

Which is clearly listed as a rationale for buying one earlier. I know most owners of these things drive like disabled octogenarians but the actual incidences of being physically in that state are rare.

We bought a small Range Rover. a) because we liked it b) because I wanted a vehicle that my 94 year old mum could get in and out of. I'd like a bigger one, but can't really justify it - we have 3 vehicles and only do about 5K per year in all of them combined (even less since Covid)

I make sure my carbon footprint is lower than John Kerry’s.

That’s my only measure of whether I’m doing my part.

Came across something on Youtube about Trump, Biden and their cars. Biden still has a splendid Corvette Sting Ray that his father gave him for a wedding present. I didn't even get a second-hand Viva.
