2 SUVs in my road of 14 houses. There's my Dacia Duster, then the lad next door has a Nissan Juke but he works for Nissan and changes his cars more frequently than his underpants! He plans to have a Leaf next time.
I love my SUV. It looks good, the Duster doesn't have the dumpy looks of most SUVs. The seat height is just right so that I can slide into it, lower seats hurt my back these days. Elderly relatives really appreciate this ease of access. I like the upright driving position. Potholes and speed bumps it takes in it's stride. It has a wide track so it easily straddles those speed cushions in the middle of the traffic lane.
The load area with the seats folded is enormous, great for trips to the tip when I'm clearing the garden.
We get quite a lot of snow away from the coast, here in the North East, so I've chosen 4WD and it does get used.
