    This is why there are no plans to try to sell something like this in the US. I drive three hours each way on day-trips fairly often, and a couple times a year I drive around 1000 miles per day for longer trips. Even people who live in cities with short commutes often want to travel to places several hours away pretty regularly. Here you can drive for hours and hours and hours and not even leave the state. It’s not like we can take a train either.

      You can use the savings of having a $20k city car to rent a $70k monster car a couple of times per year, and come out way ahead. You probably need more luggage space on those trips anyway.
