Sedans are boring. Even girls don't like them much anymore. People are getting small to medium SUV's just so they can haul a few things around when need be.

Now if only American makers would stop making them look like "mommy-cars" (Ford Explorer?), guys wouldn't have to stick with sports cars and pickups.

I made the move from small pickups to AWD 5-door hatchbacks about 16 years ago, having already abandoned sedans in the early 1980's. Niteowl77 clings to her sedans, but even she is looking at something a bit more "crossover" for the next vehicle. She has frequently - though not always gracefully - admitted that my vehicle is more versatile than hers.

As for GM, it's just an old name for a collection of heritage plants with a lot of Obamite dingleberries attached. The leftist mediocrities running it are apparently either part of the "torpedo the Trump economy" fleet or simply sentient enough to know that there are no longer enough of the "driving cap/blue rinse set who can't see over the steering wheel" to keep their boring sedans viable.

I am wanting a small SUV but they all look as you said like mommy cars. I would go for a Nissan Frontier but they are quite expensive, even the used ones. I drove a 2001 Mercury Mountaineer for years and loved it, my son is still driving it with nearly 200K miles on it.

Considering a used Frontier and possibly a Volkswagen Tiguan at this point. I have to have AWD where I live.
