It’s almost a motorcycle. Something like this would be great for commuting, if not for all the Compensator™ Trucks and SUVs on the road.

I feel bad for driving a big SUV, but I needed something electric that was easy for my wife to get in and out of.

Any electric vehicle is high because of the batteries. That’s why so many are those awful looking crossovers. SUVs you have to climb into which would make them harder to get in and out of. So I don’t really follow your logic I’m afraid.

Perhaps I’m not being accurate. The VW ID.4 is easier for her to enter and exit than the GTI.

I totally get the need for tall vehicles that are easy for people to get in and out. Not everyone can lift themselves from a low seat in a modern sedan or coupe. Accessibility is important.

That’s a weird way to call your wife immensely obese.

An autoimmune disease destroyed her leg veins and it’s difficult for her to walk without pain.

Maybe think before being a jerk next time.

It’s a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don’t be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
