Bad knees Posted by JerseySaab [Email] (#666) [Profile/Gallery] (more from JerseySaab) on Tue, 29 Nov 2016 13:59:38 In Reply to: The SUV craze continues, A1-turbo, Mon, 28 Nov 2016 08:17:36 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Probably what's driving at least some of the SUV craze is aging of the population with the accompanying arthritis and knee problems. It's a lot easier to get in and out of a vehicle that sits up a bit higher than a standard sedan.
That was the main reason that we purchased the Outback rather than a Legacy sedan which equipped the same way was $3000 cheaper. Aside from the higher suspension and the wagon back they are the same vehicle. (I'm not sure if the Outback is generally considered a CUV or SUV - it is visually very much a lifted Legacy station wagon.)
