No, hey, I get it. You want a cool toy, not a boring practical solution. That’s legitimate. I own many things that are not the optimal answer to a problem just because I like them.
The sheer rage at the insinuation that the option may not be optimal is fascinating, though. So uniquely American. Which is what this thread is about. “The maximal use case”.
For the record, I had not heard of the “Honda Fit”. I guess it’s like a Japanese Fiat Punto. Also for the record, what both the Fiat Punto and the Honda Fit seem to have is a back seat. But hey, again, a cool toy, not an optimal solution. Maximal use case. It’s a good observation.
Considering you have absolutely no idea of what he does on a daily basis and no idea of how often he needs the vehicle for those situations. Plus no idea of his parking space. I’m not sure how you are able to tell him what he should buy.
I didn’t? Like I explicitly didn’t. I explicitly say up there that I get it and even if I think it’s not optimal you get to buy stuff you like that’s not optimal because you think it’s cool.
This only reinforces my point about the sheer, unbridled rage this subject triggers in a certain stripe of car people, and it’s both hilarious and kinda terrifying.
The only rage here is you against literally anything that has an open bed, even if it is the same size and gets the same mileage as a compact car.
