  1. Driving is a dreary chore so why not bring the living room? While most of the Vox audience so viscerally loathe anything larger than an ebike they cannot relate, it's worth mentioning roomy vehicles with long wheelbases are quite comfortable and notably nicer to ingress and egress for tall humans. There is zero downside to cargo capacity. I wrenched in the used car business and the public preference for comfy large barges is the overwhelming consumer choice. We quit buying anything other than luxury cars, SUVs and pickup trucks for resale because no one wanted them even during the last recession. Soon BEV will remove the most important problem of large vehicles (pollution) to which the rest are trifles by comparison. They have large footprints for large batteries for the extended range consumers want.
