ha ha! You’re too funny Ima.

I personally prefer mini SUV... but that is only because it fits my lifestyle the best. I live in the Santa Cruz Mountains and it’s an extremely curvy road. Having a 4wd is a must to get up and down the hill. The cargo and the height are nice on my back when it comes to loading groceries and access to the back seat. I live a good 45 min away from a grocery store so having a surplus of space in the back is great.

We don't travel often but do a lot of commuting.

Also, we are plant people!! We love to garden and plant and often buy trees and large size outdoor plants and can stick them in the SUV with the back seat folded down. We also are fixing up our 80 year old home and it needs tons of work and to save cost, much of it is DIY projects. We make frequent trips to the hardware stores and so on. We do have a good running 1964 pick-up truck to haul things to the dump in or gather large supply of firewood.

Not only it was good for family, the small SUV just an all purpose vehicle that support our lifestyle.
