I very much agree that EVs make having the right vehicle for the job more
important. I’ve definitely found that. And I think car-sharing, in many
different forms, is a useful piece of the overall puzzle.
I just wanted to say, though, that as I get older, I really really appreciate
an upright driving posture, and that’s something SUVs (and “crossovers” and
pickups) do well. You don’t have to fold yourself into them, and you don’t
have to get _down_ into them. I imagine I’m not alone in that.
