My only regret is not getting that used Range Rover in Alabama when I had the chance.
That should not be a regret because a used Range Rover can be a dicey proposition, especially if they are too low in price, and don't have a full service history with the vehicle.
+1 for not being caught in a Prius. I'd feel safer on a bicycle.

I'm a terrible driver so she felt that I'd be safer in an SUV. Also I felt good when I drove it. I felt like look at me I'm super middle class despite only making $9 an hour.
... My truck has a few more dents (told you I was terrible driver) ...
I got a bigger car because its safer for my son to be in than my old hyandi clown car that If in an accident would be killed right away!...I did not go the truck or SUV way though.
Most people from other countries do not understand your prerogative on driving these big pick up trucks and huge SUV's. I ponder why small women go inside and drive these big vehicles, when obviously it does not fit there needs. Are most Americans that ignorant, because I just can not think of any reason why other then to fulfill there insecure ego.
How sweet of you to make blanket statements.
We have 3 cars in the driveway. A Miata - very small. An Eclipse - small. And an Explorer for my husband who is disabled and needed something he could get in and out of. Ego had nothing to do with it.
It was also awful handy to have a van when we had our 5 kids at home, and 2 of their friends were living with us too. I had a hell of a time strapping 7 teens to the roof of that Miata.
Thankfully he doesn't have the elitist, snobby attitude you seem to have. Stay on your side of the pond and keep your uninformed opinions to yourself.

So we can burn through our remaining oil reserves as fast as possible and leave our children and future generations in the dust fighting for scraps. Duh!
Another reason Americans drive big cars & europeans don't - we actually reproduce and have kids.
Kids require -by law - big honkin car safety seats the size of fighter plane ejection seats. Have more then 2 kids in 8-9 years and you need a third row just to accomodate the seats.

Why should I drive a small car - that I don't like - when I can drive the type of vehicle I do like to drive?
I like our SUV's (we have 2), our Pickup Truck (for towing our boat and RV), our Lincoln Town car (can't beat the ride)
Nothing to do with insecurity.
Has EVERYTHING to do with FREEDOM.
