      It’s a sort of arm’s race. People don’t feel safe in cars anymore with all these predators out on the roads, so they get bigger vehicles to feel safe again

      And it will just keep going. Soon everyone will drive tanks. 🙄

      Seriously 3 hours every day usage of your car is extremely high, especially in Europe, where things are not so remote. I would be very surprised if many drivers have that mileage or usage of their cars.

        Last I have read it was using the car for 2 hours a day for work. But thinking about people buying groceries and doing entertainment related stuff must also contribute some minutes, so I was leniently adding an hour.
