Why does Veeky Forums hate crossovers so much?

Jack of all trades, master of none, driven by every self-entitled cunt on the road

Considering GLC300 for wife. good idea?

They make more sense than plebby hatchbacks and wagons. Thats for sure. Fuck 4chans automotive board.

Hmm, just out of curiosity, what car do you drive sweetie?

Veeky Forums has mommy issues

Ford Fusion, and you busrider?

Because it's where good cars that were good at something go to die by being good at nothing so that your Toyota minivan wins the game.

Wew

>I want a hatchback but I also want to feel the safety of a SUV: The Car
Its stupid compromise built on pure Marketing.
The original Crossover by AMC was a everyday car that can go offroading
the current ones are SUVs that are made for mallcrawling

What do you drive?

Hahaha, so, you overpaid for an ugly looking piece of shit that will be expensive to repair when it inevitably breaks in the near future?

My car is better in literally every way, and it attracts the ladies as well, unlike your shitty ford.

It's not a fucking Ford fusion, that's for sure

Because it doesn't fucking exist? lmao busriders are fucking hilarious when they dodge that question

>posts mini
You're hilarious

What ladies? All you're going to be attracting with that woman's car is a horde of flamboyant gay men

It's bait, pretty decent too

>bragging about driving the quintessential nigger mover

jamal, no.

I actually own two cars, but I'd rather ride the bus than own a fucking Ford fusion lol

Who said I drive a Nissan?
I'm sure you do sweetie, GTA V doesn't count though

Nobody said you drive a nissan. You said you drive a Ford fusion

>Who said I drive a Nissan?
ebin

Exactly, niggers don't drive Fusions

>hella
Califags need to burn

You could say it went... faster than a V6 Fusion with autotragic transmission.

...

BLOWN THE FUCK OUT

Doubtful, my Fusion has a sub-7 second 0-60
That happened months ago

are you... bragging about that??? sweetie...

No, just saying it's not as slow as was implied

It is though

Not really, it's pretty dang quick for a daily

My parents drive a crossover, an Audi Q5, 3L TDI. (>VAG.)

My dad wants it for crude boasting. We're originally from the Balkans and he needs to let everybody know he made it big in Germany on his three-week vacation trips. I don't get why he feels the need to rub it in his old friends' and neighbors' faces that they're still living in abject poverty, but I guess that's how we shit tier slavs operate.

My mother is the main user of the car and she basically needs it to drive to Aldi and back home. She digs the view and control she feels she has from a higher seating position and considers it more safe too.

Drove it a fair bit and... to be perfectly honest, it's a comfy car. I kinda get my mom at least. I have a fucked back and can't sit well for extended periods of time, and getting in and out of regular sedans, hatches, station wagons can be pretty painful. It's why I started using their car over mine sometimes. The car is also needlessly heavy, tight parking lots are a bitch to navigate, and parts and tires and shit are obscenely expensive. At least the engine can run forever, and it has enough spunk to move the fat piece of shit around at a good clip.

As long as it's comfy for her bull, why not?

everything can be a daily you pussy bitch

Why so angry, child?

All of the downsides of an SUV with none of the benefits

He rides the bus. Why do you even need to ask?

By nature, women are attracted to bigger men because they could give her better offspring and can protect her chilluns better. SUVs and Minivans exploded in popularity because of their bigness and thus "muh safety", which lead to huge amounts of large vehicles on the road. This is the same reason why Chad drives a lifted brotruck, so that he can attract a Stacey. Cars kept growing to make them safer against these momobiles in the event of a collission, and people complained about SUV ride quality and the stigma associated with minivans. Thus, the crossover was born. You'd figure the Bush era fuel crisis would've made Americans be more conservative with car sizes, but it didn't.

Has anybody lowered a crossover? It seems like it would be a good way to get a decent hatch in the US that isn't a total penalty box.

...

Ew

Only some crossovers are literal hatchbacks with higher suspension.

Agreed, the fusion is a pussy black hole vs. a mini.

You can lower the First Gen CR-V's

...

Dang it

Not crossovers.

How is a CR-V or a Forester not a crossover?

The Crosstrek is textbook crossover.

What, you want pigfat barges? Here then

Nice Aztec

The first and second generation CR-Vs are compact SUVs.

Every iteration of the Forester is full-blown compact SUV.

Pic related is what a crossover is, a raised sedan/hatchback platform.

Crosstek is literally an impreza with a $3000 factory lift

Nigger, the RD1 platform is nothing more than a high-roof EK Civic wagon with a suspension lift, it's a car-based platform with a unibody, it's a crossover

Yup, and the Rav4 is legit a Corolla with stilts.

I'm not memeing, cuckovers are exactly that, factory lifted econoboxes.

3rd gen RAV4 is a bespoke platform

>Nigger, the RD1 platform is nothing more than a high-roof EK Civic wagon with a suspension lift, it's a car-based platform with a unibody, it's a crossover
Shit, you got me.

Back then it was an SUV though, crossovers weren't a tangible vehicle type until the Aztek came out and the manufacturers started toying with the idea to make a whole new type to differ it from SUVs.

I was referring to the latest RAV4.

I didn't think it shared components or platform with anything other than the Lexus NX?

...

The fuck am I looking at? Those are two completely different interiors, none of the dimensions are the same and nothing lines up with each other

Also, the Rolla is the bottom pic, you can tell because of the perspective of the Grand Prix in front of it

>Those are two completely different interiors
are you blind man, the steering wheels are both on the left side and the stick is in the middle, isn't that a bit too much of a coincidence

They just termed it an SUV because CUV hadn't been invented yet, SUV was used for anything with a suspension lift and awd/4wd

You little shit

I miss wagons because I want car-like handling and I want it to be easy to load and unload two bicycles from the rear/hatch.

Older boxy wagon designs, like the Volvo 850, were great. The older boxy Subaru Forester was nice.

Newer CUV, cross over vehicle designs are too aero-styled for their own good. The back is too low. The seats don't fold flat. The 2002-2005 subaru impreza wagon has a longer and taller wagon area then today's subaru crosstrek.

They're ugly as fuck, bland, and only women drive them
Stop being a fucking faggot and get a real SUV

>insane drive high but no AWD to back it up
>halfway between hatchback and wagon shaped for no reason
>heavy and underpowered
>not economical because it's higher than a boxtruck
>gives "safe" feel when driving but has fuck all visibility
>nightmare to drive and park in the city, where it's being used primarily

That's a nice ass Burb

kek

>mini cooper
>"better in literally every way"

I rented a mini clubman on vacation and it was a great car.
can't speak for any of their other models though

"Hahaha, so, you overpaid for an ugly looking piece of shit that will be expensive to repair when it inevitably breaks in the near future?"


you own a "British car" assembled by BMW. this has to be bait

t. !t8NEWFAGAY

>take hatchback
>make it barely longer
>make it taller, aka useless room for less safety
>make it heavier
>give it a dogshit awd system
>???
>profit
crossovers are shit. buy a wagon.

What the fuck is the point of the Mazda cx3
Can someone please explain it to me

something for downsizing boomers to spend their nest egg on

Because in 10-20 years it's all the used market will be.

there won't even be a used market in 20 years
