Getting in and out of a higher-riding vehicle with an upright seating position is more natural and comfortable, particularly for the elderly and/or infirm. Furthermore, we have engineered away most of the drawbacks of crossovers and SUVs.

Based on the numbers of SUV’s and large trucks on US roads I’m going to assume 90% of your population is elderly or infirm.
