"“I do wish I could buy a new American car the size of a Crown Vic.”

You can, it is call the Expedition with more room to boot.

I wish I could get deeper into it, however an auto gnome denotes what is published knowledge, that consumers want the CUV/SUV thing, and IMHO it is about the roominess, or perceived roominess. Many of the CUV's are tall cars on small car chassis. I also think it has to do with the stuffolla that Millenials and Z's carry around with them and they treat their car like a teenage bedroom floor with all the junk all over it. They don't revere the car as a transportation device that moves your soul, just something that gets you to the next experience. You wouldn't keep the interior of a 68 GTO like a pig sty, they do so with their cars.

The Chevy Bolt is a tall car that handles well because the C.G. is so low because the batteries are below the floorboards.

Do not care for Expeditions. I have a Tahoe already and am thinking about getting a Suburban. I would like to get a big American car also but you can’t anymore.
