Yeah right, most of them wouldnt do that. How many farmers use the Lexus out in a field?
Would I pay attention to this? No.
I had a truck for a number of years - L200 Warrior. It was very high though and difficult to get into but it was a proper 4x4 with duel gearbox etc. 20 mpg on diesel wasnt amusing though.

If I lived in London, especially the Chelsea/Battersea end, I wouldn't have a car at all. I'd be that well off if I lived there, I'd be able to rent one when I needed to and IMO owning one would be more trouble than pleasure. The largest number of those large SUV's may well be in London but that article says nothing about what percentage of all car ownership that is. I drive a mid size SUV and love it. I don't need its underbody clearance and 4wd as much as I used to, but when I do need it I blooming do and as others have said the view with a higher car is better and its easier to get into and out of.
I do think about emissions and so on when I choose but its ONLY when I choose and I wouldn't change my car just for environmental reasons....sorry, I can't afford to. I did laugh about the RAC man saying "the right car for the right journey" as though we all have several to choose from.

Collect our (nearly) new crossover today. Got rid of two cars because "she who must be obeyed" is now working from home and that looks permanent(drat) . Stupid to have a motor on the drive, which it has been for 12 months. It did 250 miles in 12 months and was only previously used to travel into the office and to visit the hairdressers. We normally drive to Cornwall at least once a year and like to get onto Ynys Mon and down the Llyn during the summer. We have gone for the crossover cos my boy racer days are over and ease of access is a decider. No more parking then finding some git has put an suv alongside making it dangerous to reverse out because you can't see through it. No guilt trip here, and to answer the original post the interfering advice from a source that has no brief to give it will be roundly ignored.
I've always thought being higher up (mainly from driving vans) led to much better all-around vision which makes me feel safer.
Had to drive a workmate's Range Rover home once, didn't like the 'feel' of it. Suppose you must get used to it as other people buy them repeatedly.
Thought this thread would be about Buttegieg (Biden's transport secretary) parking his fleet of SUV's around the corner from the Whitehouse, getting his bike out of the back of one of them and cycling into a photo op. (not the first politician to do this and doubtfully the last but you gotta laugh, ain't you)

The only way to stop people buying things which allegedly pollute the atmosphere to an unacceptable degree is to stop them being sold. They've done it with light bulbs, vacuum cleaners and look like doing so with gas boilers (though I'm going to buy a spare before they go off the market) and cars. Nothing else will prevent people from buying these things because, essentially, they have far more important things to concern them than the 2% of emissions that the UK is responsible for.
