Costs was a big factor, including costs of insurance (a huge factor (the CRV is $35 to insure)) and costs of parts. Not to mention the costs (and availablily) of aftermarket stuff.
Plus I have a few friends who have them as well and they’re very fun little SUVs
I was also looking at smaller pickups (like 1980s to 1999) but they’re so bloody expensive right now locally.
I even looked at kei trucks (and almost bought one (they’re street legal in my state) but changed my mind when I double checked how it would affect my insurance cost and they told me they wouldn’t insure it, so I’d have to get a second insurance plan from another company and I didn’t want to go through that headache.

I’m definitely not a fan of modern SUVs which are basically tanks (like seriously you should def check this tool out to compare car sizes)

Honestly yeah
Basically they told me that because it was never originally sold (or an equivalent model) in the states they wouldn’t insure it
It was pretty frustrating
