Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Strictly based on looks ignores a lot of other aspects of the car. I always appreciated small cars, but a recent injury made climbing in and out of my little car excruciating. A friend gave me a ride in a CUV, and I didn't even clench my jaw getting into it. I'm now entertaining the idea of getting one myself.
That's why I said esthetically speaking, but they could make cars that are easier to get into that look a lot better, too.
Well then I think you answered your own question.
If they aren't buying them for their looks, they are buying them for other reasons. Reasons such as comfort, function, or practicality.
But then why make them look that way? They could surely make a body style that fits all of the requirements without looking awful, too. There's nothing special about that particular body style that allows all of those things.
